I am pleased to know that The Indian Panorama is bringing out a special edition to mark 4^th of July. I must congratulate the Indian American publisher Prof. Indrajit S Saluja for his being thoughtful that the historic event of his country of adoption is as important and worthy of celebration as a similar event in the country of his origin. We need more Indian Americans to understand the importance of getting involved in every aspect of the life in the country that we have chosen to make our home.

COVID-19 took a heavy toll not only on human lives but also on the lifestyle of people all across the world. Here in the US, over a period of more than a year we were forced to give up much of the fun that we are used to. But now, with pandemic receding, Americans are slowly trying to recover the good old times spirit. It is a matter of satisfaction that the traditional 4^th of July parades and fireworks are returning, and Americans are ready to celebrate with enthusiasm the historic day of Independence.

I extend to readers of The Indian Panorama my greetings on the occasion of the 246^th Independence Day of America.

God Bless America!
