On August 15, India
celebrates her first Independence Day in the new millennium. A lot has
changed, and much hasn’t. In fact, in many spheres of our national
life there has been a sea-change, both qualitatively and
quantitatively. Some of the shifts in attitude and practice show us
emerging as a more confident and vibrant nation in the 21st century.
