Google Doodle Celebrates India's 80th Independence Day With Textile Tribute

Google made a special picture to celebrate India's 80th Independence Day.

The picture looks like a colorful quilt made of different Indian fabrics.

It was created by an artist named Namrata Kumar from New Delhi.

A long time ago, in 1947, India became its own country after being ruled by Britain for almost two hundred years.

Every year on August 15, people in India celebrate this day.

They raise the flag, listen to the Prime Minister speak from the Red Fort, and fly kites with flag colors.

The special Google picture shows famous Indian cloth-making styles like Jamdani, Ikat, and Benarasi silk.

These crafts are made by weavers, dyers, and printers across the country.

The picture is a way to say thank you to these artists and to celebrate India's culture.
