India's journey 2 independence

In the annals of time, a story's told, Of India's struggle for freedom, long and bold. Clement Attlee announcement, on February 20, 1947, Set June 30, 1948, as the independence date to pursue. But India's pressure cooker, on the verge of boil, Mutinies, protests, and violence, made the British recoil. The Royal Indian Navy's mutiny, a sign of the times, Mass protests and communal violence, a dire crime. The Quit India Movement's legacy, still fresh and strong, Made the British fear a delay would trigger a civil war all wrong. The Indian Independence Act, passed in July 1947, Brought freedom earlier than expected, a new Mahatma Gandhi, the father of our land, Didn't attend the first Independence Day stand. He was in Kolkata, on a hunger strike true, Trying to restore peace, in a region torn anew. India gained freedom, at midnight's stroke, August 15, 1947, a moment to invoke. Astrology played a role, in choosing the time, Auspicious stars aligned, for India's prime. Jana Gana Mana, our national anthem so fine, Was written in 1911, but adopted later in its prime. January 24, 1950, the day it was declared, Our national anthem, forever to be shared.
