Panorama India is all set to digitally celebrate India’s 74th Independence Day on August 15th and 16th, 2020. India Day celebrations will start August 1 with contests and promotions and then starting August 10 there will be daily programming that will build up to our main event which will be held on August 15 and 16.

“I am so proud that the Pandemic is not stopping us from showing our love for our country. This
is going to be a 2-day celebration of our heritage and culture.” said Ms. Apoorva Srivastava,
Hon. Consul General of India in Toronto at a recent virtual press conference.  Over 40 representatives from various cultural organizations attended the planning meeting to prepare for the virtual floats and programming.
