India became free from British domition 70 years back, that is on the 15th August, 1947. The country had gone through immense suffering and lots of sacrifices before filly winning freedom. The memorable event occurred due to colossal contribution and scarifies of great and noble leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Nehru, Sardar Patel, Lokmanya Tilak, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, to me only a few. The contributions made by the common people were also significant. In our own state also quite a number of people sacrificed their lives for the sake of freedom. But as we see today, our imperial masters left Indians to dislike their own glorious tradition. The situation now is that we are neither genuine Indians nor non–Indians and it has become our second ture to imitate the western people and to accept their customs as our own, and also to abandon our own culture as antiquated. Hence now we have no ground to stand upon firmly.
