The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade this year is leveraging India’s 75th anniversary of independence on 15 August 2022 to promote the growing importance of the bilateral relationship with Australia, and the significant contributions of the Indian diaspora community to raising ‘India literacy’ in Australia.
In partnership with the India High Commission, the Department has arranged the illumination on the evening of 15 August 2022 of some 40 national monuments in the India tricolour.
