Thanks and yeah India did gain independence on midnight ie, the 15th August 1947 and as of now we are celebrating India's Independence Day!!
What!! Me posting Everything !!!
Well put Francois.
I consider Pakistan to be like a brother country. Originated from the same motherland but divided due to vested interest of a few people then(at the time of independence) and now. I have no ill-feelings towards the country and like millions other Pakis and Indians, I too feel that both the countries should embrace each other's friendship.
Also, my father is an officer serving in the Indian Army and I've unfortunately seen the horrors of the 1999 Kargil war and would never like to see India go at a full fledged war with Pakistan. As you mentioned, I am a peace loving guy!!
While I may not start topics commemorating important days of other countries, I sure do participate and congratulated when a person from that country or any other person does so. One example is the thread on Canada Day. I started the 4th of July thread because it was...Duh! American Independence Day and who doesn't know about that!! lol...
Thanks Francois.
I say it again, many people would think that with my frequency of posting, I'm a postaholic...while that may be true to some extent, but please bear in mind that I post only in relevant topics where I have some opinion and not everywhere!!

P.S
Celebrating 60 years of Freedom!!
