Independence Day is celebrated each and every year on 15th of August. The independence day of India has a great value itself. On this day in 1947, India got freedom from the British rule after long years of slavery. It is a national holiday which is celebrated as an anniversary of national independence.

It was not an easy thing for India to get freedom from the Britishers, however, many hardworking people and freedom fighters of India made it possible by sacrificing their lives.

On this day, all the national, states and local government's offices, banks, post offices, markets, stores, businesses, organizations, etc become closed. However, the public transport remains totally unaffected.

In 2018, India is celebrating its 72nd Independence Day to pay tribute and remember all the freedom fighters that had contributed a lot and fought for the Independence of India.

On this day, President of India gives a speech every year in order to "Address to the Nation" on the evening of a day before the Independence Day. It is celebrated with big passion in the Capital of country on 15th of August where the prime minister of India hoists the Indian flag on the Red Fort, Delhi.

Flag hoisting, National Anthem song play and parade ceremonies comprising of other cultural programmes takes place in almost all the governmental & non-governmental institutions, educational institutions and some of the private institutions all through the country.

As we know that Independence is all about freedom, liberation and growth. India has got the freedom from British in 1947 but our generation is still living like a slave to the western culture. This has further resulted in increased instances of people who are suffering from lifestyle diseases. Even new born babies are suffering from diseases which are the result of poor lifestyle and food habits.

Nowadays, eating junk foods, playing video games and always glued to computers & mobile phones has made the difference in the lifestyle. Technology is invented to make our work process faster and global, however, misuse of the same for entertainment and fast paced lifestyle is leaving us caught in an unhealthy environment.

This Independence Day, let's pledge to eradicate unhealthy lifestyle and get freedom from diseases which can be easily avoided or cured by bringing more active lifestyle and avoiding fast food.
