      Independence Day

      Follow Following
      -  Followers

      Independence day refers to the annual celebration of a country's freedom from colonial rule or foreign domination. In many countries, it marks the date when a nation formally gained independence, often after a long struggle. Independence day in India is celebrated annually on 15th August to mark the end of British colonial rule in 1947 and the birth of a sovereign nation. It is a national holiday observed with great patriotism, featuring flag hoisting ceremonies, cultural events, and the Prime Minister's address from the Red Fort in Delhi. This day commemorates the sacrifices made during the struggle for freedom and is a time to reflect on India's progress and challenges. Independence Day remains a symbol of pride and unity across the country.

      A viral clip falsely claimed that Amit Shah ignored Chief Justice of India (CJI) D.Y. Chandrachud’s greeting during an Independence Day event at the Red Fort.

      BOOM's fact-check revealed that the two did greet each other, and the video was misleadingly edited. Both were seen exchanging pleasantries during the event.

      A viral video falsely claimed to show Indian Independence Day celebrations at Trafalgar Square.

      BOOM fact-checked the video and found that it was actually footage of Italy's Republic Day celebrations in Piazza Venezia, Rome. The video had no connection to India's Independence Day.
