Independence Day is celebrated in every year in the memory of our independence obtained on august 15 in the year of 1947.It was the day when the 'father of our nation ',Mohandaskaramchand Gandhi[1869-1948] made the British leave India as it was,but as independent.

In 1929 the Lahore session of congress decided that 26 January would be celebrated as the day of 'poorna swaraj' or complete independence.when India became independent 26 January of the year 1950 was taken as the republic day.

This 'complete independence' gave the people right to elect their representatives .Also it gave them many other rights.So the ultimate power lies in the hands of the public
