Google Doodle Celebrates Indias Independence Day
In honor of the 69th Anniversary of India's Independence on Aug. 15, Google India's Doodle features Mahatma Gandhi leading the Dandi March of 1930. The scene depicts a significant moment in India's push for freedom from the rule of the British Raj and the beginning of the Civil Disobedience Movement. Seventy-eight Congress volunteers participated in the 240-mile march in protest of unfair salt laws. Leon Hong illustrated the Doodle for Google users in India as they celebrate the Indian Independence Act of 1947 on Saturday.
