A Naga Army soldier stands in prayer during celebrations marking the Nagas' Declaration of Independence in Chedema, in the northeastern Indian state of Nagaland, Sunday, August 14, 2022. In this small mountain village, blue flags fluttered in the clear blue sky. While Indians across the country prepared to celebrate 75 years of independence on Monday, the Naga community marked the occasion by hoisting their very own blue flag.
