Sydney Opera House cloaked in the tricolours of the Indian national flag tonight to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the country’s independence.
The lights started at 8 Pm on 15th of August, 2022.
NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet and Minister for Multiculturalism Mark Coure welcomed the lighting up of the iconic Sydney landmark in orange, white and green to commemorate India’s milestone anniversary.
“India is a good friend to NSW, and we see our relationship growing stronger and stronger,” Mr Perrottet said.
“Our friendship has long been based on shared values and interests, which I have seen first-hand, and now we will see that relationship strengthened through investment and trade.
“We will celebrate that friendship tonight and our new commitments to work together by recognising this historical occasion for India.”
Minister for Multiculturalism Mark Coure said many things connect NSW and India, but there was one above all that was most important, and you would be forgiven if you thought it was our mutual love of cricket.
