The significance of Red Fort for Independence Day celebrations
On August 15, India is set to mark its 80th Independence Day with the main event at the Red Fort in Delhi. This iconic site was selected due to its deep historical importance. Back in 1947, the country's inaugural Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, raised the national flag and gave a speech to the nation from this location. This practice has been upheld by every Prime Minister on Independence Day ever since.
