Bengaluru's Freedom Habba to Feature Grand Parade, Vidhana Soudha Tours

Every year on August 15, India celebrates Independence Day to remember when the country became free.

This year, the city of Bengaluru is doing something new and special.

It is holding a big celebration called the Freedom Habba, which means 'Freedom Festival.'

For the very first time, there will be a grand parade with music, dancing, and colorful shows featuring India's culture.

People from many parts of India, speaking different languages, will join the parade to show how different traditions can come together.

Children will get a special chance to visit the Vidhana Soudha, the big government building where leaders make decisions, something that has never happened before.

There will also be fun activities for kids, like games, stories, and art, plus a museum about India's freedom story.

The festival will last all day, from 11 o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock at night, and will end with fireworks.

The minister who planned it hopes every child who visits will remember this special day forever.
