This article needs to be renamed
editYear and Day in the same title is just wrong. Will "Celebrations during the 75th year of Indian Independence" do? Unless someone has something better. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:23, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
The title should be Azadi Ka Amrit Mohatsav 75 Years of Indian Independence Harshvardhan Vijaykumar Pawar (talk) 15:30, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Harshvardhan Vijaykumar Pawar: The title should be in English, as this is the English language Wikipedia. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:40, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
- @WikiDan61, probably this article must be renamed to Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav as 75th independence day is the same as all the other independence days in India, Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, a campaign by the government is what makes it different.
Even the Government of India uses Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav as the official name of the campaign. See https://amritmahotsav.nic.in/ the official website of the campaign. - Looking forward for your suggestions and views. Cheers! Leoneix (talk) 14:52, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Leoneix: The government of India probably calls this holiday by its Hindi name because Hindi is the official language of the government of India. But it is not the language of this Wikipedia. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 15:17, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
- @WikiDan61, But 75th independence day is not the translation of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav Leoneix (talk) 15:44, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
- The actual event name is Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav which is to be celebrated on the occasion of 75th independence day. Leoneix (talk) 03:29, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

76?
editThere is a statement in the lead section stating that it is the 76th anniversary, and the source that is used (Times of India) states on the same page both "75th" and "76th". Not sure which it is, but source 3 (also the Times of India) states that it is in fact the 75th. Thoughts before I change this? —MEisSCAMMER (scam) 16:18, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- To muddy the waters: India's first Independence day was on 15 August 1947. So, 15 August 2022, was the 76th Independence day, which came at the end of 75 years of independence. Now, for the term anniversary. The first anniversary of something (birth/wedding/other) is exactly one year after that something was created. So 15 August 2022 was the 75th anniversary of Independence. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:48, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
