Indian schoolchildren with tri-colour bands on their wrists participate in a drill for Independence Day celebrations at a school in Kolkata on August 15, 2016. Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India was becoming the world's most attractive destination for foreign investors, using his annual Independence Day speech to trumpet sweeping tax reforms designed to spur growth. In an address from Delhi's 17th-century Red Fort, Modi sought to highlight his government's achievements, including the recent passage of a landmark tax reform, that have contributed to India's robust growth during a global slowdown.
