Just a couple of days shy of the red-letter day on August 15, the entire country is celebrating what is known as the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav to mark 75 years of India’s independence from the British rule.

The occasion has led to an initiative by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has urged the citizens to put the ‘Tiranga’ (Tricolour) as the profile picture of their social media accounts between August 2 and 15.

Following suit, MS Dhoni changed his Instagram profile picture or the display picture (DP) to the Indian Tricolour, with a quote written underneath it in Sanskrit which meant: ‘I’m blessed to be a Bharatiya (Indian)’.

Gurpreet Singh is a Cricket writer at The Sportsrush. His platonic relationship with sports had always been there since childhood, but Cricket managed to strike a special, intimate nerve of his heart. Although his initial dream of playing the sport at the highest level couldn't come to fruition, Gurpreet did represent the state of Jharkhand at the under-14 level. However, almost like taking a pledge to never let the undying passion for Cricket fade away even a tad, he made sure to continue the love relationship by assigning the field of journalism as an indirect Cupid. He thus, first finished his bachelor's in journalism and then pursued the PG Diploma course in English journalism from the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC). Soon after and since 2019, he has been working at The Sportsrush. Apart from sports, he takes keen interest in politics, and in understanding women and gender-related issues.
