Mere watan Se Achchha Koyee Watan Nahin He
Saare Jahan mein Aisa Koyee Ratan Nahin He
Is Desh Jaisi Ganga Jamuna Kahin Na Hogi
Vedon Se Khoobsoorat Rachna Kahin Nahin Hogi
Duniya Mein Aisi Dharati Aisa Gagan Nahin He

There have been a spate of posts around the Independence Day period with some jingoistic song uploads. I just want to mention a historic tidbit. Why was Independence Day 15th August (14th for us Pakistanis just to be contrary tongue1.gif )?

Lord Louis Mountbatten, naval hero in WWII against Japan and final Viceroy of India personally chose this date (without consulting anyone or seeking prior approval) because it was the second anniversary of the Japanese surrender in WWII - a special occasion for him. Of course, it being a Friday was deeply disturbing to India's Jyotshi community who found the date very inauspicious...


Kind Regards
Faraaj
