"The air was thick with patriotism, pride, and optimism as the soul of a nation, long suppressed, was finally finding utterance.
My nerves tingle even now as I churn in my mind the sweet memories of celebrating India’s independence every 15th of August with flag-hoisting ceremonies, parades, and cultural events, made special with the enthusiastic chanting of “Jana Gana Mana,” our national anthem. For a young nation, recently freed from the shackles of 200 years of British colonial rule, the air was thick with patriotism, pride, and optimism, especially on Independence Day."
