History of
Independence Day
The British ruled India for almost 200 years. Under the British rule, the life of the people was pathetic. Indians were treated like slaves and they had no right to say anything to them. The Indian rulers were mere puppets in the hands of the British officials. Indian soldiers were treated inhumanely in British camps and farmers were starving because they could not grow crops and had to pay heavy land taxes. Before independence, many atrocities were committed on Indian citizens by the British. He did not get any kind of freedom to lead his life. Many struggles were faced by our freedom fighters to get freedom for India.
The British were fought for independence by famous leaders and freedom fighters of India, mainly Mahatma Gandhi, Bhagat Singh, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Subhash Chandra Bose, Jawaharlal Nehru, Grandfather Naoroji, Rani Lakshmi Bai, Mangal Pandey, etc. The freedom struggle was fought by individuals. Their lives were also sacrificed by these great people to get freedom for the country.
