India is celebrating Independence Day!
To mark this important day, the government invited leaders from many villages.

They focused on things like keeping villages clean, giving everyone clean water, and creating good systems for the community.
It's a way of saying thank you for all the hard work and showing off how great rural India is doing!
85 village panchayat heads from 26 states and UTs were invited to the Independence Day celebrations.
The invitations were in recognition of contributions to rural development.
