There is no doubt, India is a country with a rich history. There are many particular dates in India’s history such as the 15th of August as independence day, the 26th of January as Constitution day, wars, and so on. Here I would like to talk about the independence story of India. The story is about the struggle of freedom fighters who burnt the midnight oil to get independence for India.
I have a keen interest in history and also I have heard various stories of freedom fighters from my Grandparents in my childhood. They often told me about happenings. Also, in my school days, I read history where ever I found more information about it. Actually, this is where I aroused my interest in that era.
Moreover, I want to know more about that particular period because I want to know how freedom fighters such as Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad, and various other fighters sacrifice their lives to get freedom from British rulers. Apart from that, I am fascinated by the stories of these Fighters and the courage and determination they showed to obtain independence.
Eventually, I would like to know more about that historical time. As today is a technological era, so I am planning to surf the internet so I can gather more information about it. I shall do it as soon as possible.
