India will witness the 76th Republic Day to be celebrated on January 26, 2025, with much euphoria. On January 26th,1950 the constitution of India came into force. This is the day India became a Republic in 1950-more than two years after it gained independence-with a huge fight for almost two years to get there. To commemorate this day, a grand parade featuring the country’s military, cultural heritage, and energetic schoolchildren’s performances is planned for Delhi’s Kartavya Path.
The bravery and skills of the armed forces, along with colourful tableaux showcasing different cultural backgrounds, art forms, and specialties that represent the present diversity of India and its unity will be emphasized through this parade.
As the Indian Citizens, we too get to know about our own nation in a much deeper and spectacular way, listening to different songs of diverse languages, and witnessing their cultural dance makes us want to join them while when the defense forces take on the stage, our hearts fill with patriotism, witnessing air jets flying above makes our heartbeats stop for a minute.
Different Presidents of different countries get invited to experience this phenomenon experience
Indonesian President Subianto Prabowo is invited as the chief guest. Sunday morning near India Gate, the parade will kick off offering a spectacular display of India’s unity, diversity, and military strength.
