As India marks its 73rd Independence Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, hoisted the national flag today at Lal Quila at 7:30 AM in the morning. Every year, after the Prime Minister unfurls the national flag, a 21-cannon salute is given to pay homage to all the freedom fighters and armed forces who contributed their own share for an “Independent India”. Audience at Lal Quila also sing the national anthem to accord respect to our country.
