After decades of struggle and after India’s independence, the
chief commissioner’s province of Himachal was finally recognized on 15th
April, 1948. Every year the Himachal Day is celebrated on this date as
Himachal was declared as a province of India on this day. It is also declared
as a public holiday within the state.
A grand parade takes place in the city of Shimla to mark this
celebrated occasion. Many local events are also organized in various cities,
towns, and villages of the state. Mandi, Chamba, Mahasu as well as Sirmour were
integrated with the addition of another dozen princely states on this day.
