The 77th Independence Day celebration was held at Independence Square, Colombo, yesterday (04) under the patronage of President Anura Kumara Dissanayake.
This year’s celebrations were of a restrained nature, sans the unnecessary extravagance of the usual pomp and pageantry that was the norm. Consequently, the Armed Forces’ participation at the celebration was reduced by 40%.
