On the occasion of the 79th Independence Day of India, I extend my warm greetings and best wishes to all Indian citizens in Saudi Arabia, and to our dear Saudi friends and partners. Aug. 15 holds great importance for every Indian, as it was on this day in 1947 that India gained independence. It marked the end of colonial rule and the beginning of our journey as the world’s largest democracy. On this day we remember those who fought for our freedom, and we honor the brave soldiers who continue to protect our borders, many of whom have made the ultimate sacrifice for the country.
