On the reverse we can see a woman with a man holding the Indian flag, and in the background there is the Indian parliament. The writing on the right reads
25veen swatantarya jayanti meaning the 25th year of the Indian independence. India got its independence in 1947 and this coin was released in 1972, 25 years after the independence.
