Indian Republic Day - January 26th
Republic Day is celebrated every year in India on January 26th. It marks the date on which the Constitution of India came into effect in 1950, replacing the Government of India Act (1935) as the governing document of India and thus, turning the nation into a newly formed republic.
Historical Importance
The adoption of the Constitution was a monumental event in India's history, signifying the country's complete transition towards becoming an independent republic with its own set of rules and regulations. It enshrines the principles of democracy, justice, liberty, and equality for all its citizens.
Grand Celebrations
The main Republic Day celebration is held in New Delhi at Rajpath before the President of India. During this grand parade, various regiments of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force march past in all their finery. Tableaux from various states of India are also showcased, displaying the country's rich cultural heritage and progress in different fields. Gallantry awards and medals are also presented on this day.
