Independence Day holds immense historical importance, marking the end of British rule in 1947 and the establishment of an independent Indian nation. It also symbolizes the partition of the subcontinent into India and Pakistan, a momentous event etched in history.

De Jure Transfer Day is a local public holiday celebrated in Puducherry every year on August 16. This date marks the merger of Puducherry with the Indian Union, which occurred on August 16, 1962. Since this day follows Indian Independence Day, Puducherry observes a two-day holiday during this period.
