All around the globe, governments allocate a significant amount of funds towards public celebrations such as national holidays, religious and national days and traditional festivals. Some individuals argue that the government spends excessive amounts of money on these events and should instead allocate it towards other useful purposes.
Commemoration of important national events is a part of a nation's pride and a way to show respect for its tradition and history. Such events are instrumental in motivating the new generation to be patriots and bestowing tribute to people whose contributions are unforgettable.
