Invited: Adivasis, Bahai, Buddhist, Christians, Dalits, Hindus, Jains, Jews, Muslims, Sikhs, Zoroastrians, and other Indians

No organization is involved. We are just Indians coming together to celebrate the 75th Independence Day. We are people with different faiths, cultures, and languages. Let’s be one on our Independence Day.

Happiness is when we put our differences aside and celebrate India. We owe it to our motherland for nurturing us, and whatever we are today, it is because of being born and raised on that land. We are composed of that air of that land, water from her wells, and food from here kokh.

We hope the Indian communities across the land make an effort to invite every representation of Indians. We also dream that all Indians gather up at the Red Fort and hoist our Tiranga together next year or even this year. Let sab ka Saath happen, and together, let’s sing our national Anthems and a few patriotic songs. Bring small Indian and US flags on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. Eat Laddus and go home.
