Many have seen the celebration from city (urban) people.Today i will the share celebration from Gramin (Rural) part of India.
The feel and atmosphere is all pumped up since mornin, with the School Loudspeaker playing some patriotic songs , the feeling of freedom rejuvinate in everyones heart. The celebration is generally held at village high school. The students ,tthe Teachers , the vilagers, the head of village everyone assembled in School compound to celebrate the Flag Hoisting. But before the program starts, the students of the school take out a parade in the entire village.
The hope and future of India silently walking down the village lanes forming a straight lines. The shouting of "Jai Hind" and " "Bharat Mata ki Jai" echoing in the air.and school instructor and teachers manouvering the arrays making sure no student breach any discipline.
Afte taking the village round the students and, the whole village mass assembled in the school compound. The school instructor organise the student in an array and village people standing behind them. The school compound decorated with tri-colours all over the place.
