Independence Day 2024: India shines bright as iconic landmarks across cities are bathed in tricolor glory
Golconda Fort in Hyderabad, Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus in Mumbai, Delhi Secretariat, Bhopal’s Kushabhau Thackeray Convention Center, Mumbai International Airport, Calcutta High Court and Raj Bhavan in Kolkata, and the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation headquarters in Mumbai are among the prominent structures that now shimmer with national pride.
In Hyderabad, the Golconda Fort, renowned for its architectural beauty, has been meticulously illuminated by Bajaj Electricals. The lighting not only enhances the fort's aesthetic appeal but also honors its historical importance. Several dynasties like the Kakatiyas, Bahmanis, Qutb Shahis, and Mughals have left their architectural imprints on the fort. The fort now stands out even more as a symbol of India's rich heritage and its journey to independence.
In Mumbai, the historic Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus glows with vibrant colored lights. This iconic railway station, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stands as a symbol of the city’s pride and heritage. The introduction of tricolor illumination ahead of Independence Day amplifies its grandeur.
«Several historic landmarks across the nation have been beautifully illuminated in preparation for Independence Day, adding to the festive spirit,» said an official statement.
The Delhi Secretariat in the nation's capital has been lit up in saffron, white, and green. The grand building's vibrant display adds to the capital's festive atmosphere as it gears up to mark another year of independence.
