When did India get independance?

Answer 1

At 12:02 midnight, on 15 August 1947. India celebrates its Independence Day on 15 August, commemorating the day it gained its independence from British rule and its birth as a sovereign nation in 1947.

Answer 2

British India, which included present day Pakistan, Bangladesh, and India, was largely a British construct, a colony enormously enlarged after the fragmentary Mughal Empire was eliminated by the British in the 18th century. The British Raj, as British suzerainty over the subcontinent was often called, lasted until 1947, and was followed by the partition of India over basically religious lines. The northern part of the Raj became Pakistan, while the remainder became independent India. Eventually, East Pakistan rebelled against rule from Islamabad, and became independent Bangladesh.
