Every year, Independence Day is celebrated with grandeur, gaiety, fervour and enthusiasm. This year also, Independence Day will be celebrated in a manner befitting the occasion. The idea of being a free nation, where sovereign power lies with us to determine our future, places a huge responsibility on our shoulders. The significance of its beautiful story is that this nation has gained respect from the world for the democratic route chosen by it. We can proudly say that India has never invaded any country in its 10000 years of history. Recently in Baramulla, ahead of the 75th Independence day, the Army hoisted the tallest national flag in Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday. The 100-metre high flag was hoisted at the famous tourist destination of the valley, Gulmarg. “The 100 feet high Indian flag symbolises the beginning of a new era of peace and patriotism in Kashmir. The project has been jointly executed by the Indian army and Solar Industries Pvt Ltd. Foundation stone of the project was laid on February 7, 2021, and the flag dedicated to the nation on August 10, 2021,” read a statement of Indian Army. After the flag hoisting ceremony, the army accorded honour to the flag by saluting it.
