Answer:
If we stopped having leap years, the calendar would fall behind the seasons by about 1 day every 4 years.
So, to shift Indian Independence Day (15 August) from summer to winter (about a 6-month shift, or 180 days):
180 times × 4 years = 720 years
So, in about 720 years, Independence Day would fall in winter.
