Jhanda Uncha Rahe Hamara: Niagara Falls, Burj Khalifa In Tricolour, India's Flag Hoisted At New York's Times Square
India celebrated its 74th Independence Day on August 15 and for the first time, Indian Flag was hoisted at Times Square in New York City. More than two hundred Indian Americans gathered to see our Tiranga swirled with pride. People chanted patriotic slogans and also sang India's National Anthem. This was indeed a proud momet for every Indian. A participant said, "We have gathered here for our 74th Independence Day. It is an honour and privileged to host it here and make history for our motherland for all the diaspora around the world."
The iconic Niagara Falls in Canada and Dubai's Burj Khalifa tower were also lit up in tricolours to commemorate India's 74 years of freedom.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave Independence Day wishes to the Indo-Canadian community. He said, "Canada and India have a strong, longstanding, and vibrant relationship built on our shared traditions of democracy and pluralism, and deep cultural and people-to-people ties. The over one million Canadians of Indian heritage have made – and continue to make – many important contributions to our country."
