Indians surely don't celebrate Columbus Day. Columbus was known for the atrocities he did to the Indian. Moreover, he represents the start of the Indian genocide. If legend is right and Columbus was sailing for India, one would wonder why anyone would celebrate someone who missed his destination by half a world.
