Every year Republic Day is celebrated in India on 26th January with zeal and enthusiasm. Spectacular parades at Janpath, New Delhi, consisting the Indian National Army and national flag hoisting in various parts of the country are common practices followed on this day. It was this day in history in 1965 when Hindi was declared as the official language of India. This year it will be marked India’s 73rd Republic Day.

Republic Day is celebrated all over India with great gratification and joy. Republic Day signifies the right spirit of Independent and individual India. The important symbols of the festival include the exhibition of military equipment and the national flag. Cultural events advocating India’s struggle for freedom is held countrywide. In New Delhi, the national flag is hoisted by the President
of India at India Gate. The most glorious of parades takes place at Rajpath, New Delhi

Let us remember the golden heritage of our country and feel proud to be part of India. Our nation is the greatest country in the world, but let that never stop us from making it even better. We should be proud of our country for being independent and treating everyone equally, and proud for establishing secularism. As Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel said “Every Indian should now forget that he is a Rajput, Sikh, or a Jat. He must remember that he is Indian.”
Awards are presented to the brave soldiers in the form of Paramvir Chakra, Ashok Chakra, and Vir Chakra. Even children and general citizens who have displayed courage in times of adversity are honored with awards.

Today I am very confident that India can survive any crisis if we stand together as one family. Jai hind! Happy Republic Day.
