Most people today don't doubt the fact that India is an independent country. However, this wasn't always the case. For more than 200 years, India was under British rule. By the 20th century, the country's native citizens had had enough. Through the efforts of the Indian National Congress and Mahatma Gandhis campaigns for non-violent civil disobedience, the nationwide struggle for independence finally came to an end. It was on this date in 1947 that India gained its freedom and the first Indian prime minister proudly hung the tri-color flag of an independent India for the world to see.
歷史上的今天 8月15日…
現 今大部分的人都不會否認印度是個獨立國家，但是情況並非一直都是這樣。印度有200多年的時間為英國所統治。但是到了20世紀，該國的國民覺得受夠了。透 過印度國會和甘地非暴力的不合作運動，舉國上下為求獨立所做的努力終於有了結果。印度在1947年的今天迎向自由（圖為2005年印度民眾慶祝獨立紀念 日，資料照片），第一任印度總理驕傲地升起印度獨立後的3色國旗，讓全世界的人都看見。
