The Republic Day parade in India celebrates the day on which the Constitution of India came into effect, that is, January 26, 1950, replacing the Government of India Act, 1935, as the governing document of India and turning India into a republic.? ?
The parade is held in the national capital, New Delhi, and it is a display of India's cultural and military heritage. It features a display of floats representing different states of India, as well as a parade of various divisions of the Indian Armed Forces and paramilitary forces.?
It is attended by dignitaries from all over the world, including the President of India, who is the chief guest of the parade. ?It is considered one of the most important national events in our country, and the preparations began days ago.
The Indian Army's official Instagram page recently published a video of Army men practising for the Republic Day parade. The video shows army servicemen at the Delhi cantonment waking up at 3:30 a.m. and getting ready for the day.?
They all congregate at Sarva Dharma Sthal to acquire the arms before heading to Kartavya Path to exercise for hours.?"We are Ready.......Are You..?.....2 Days to go!" said the Indian?Army in the caption of the post.?
More than two lakh people have loved the video ever since it was uploaded, and the number is growing. Several people have commented on the video as well.??
People on the internet shared the same enthusiasm about the parade. A man wrote, "I am very excited for this international day(sic)." Another wrote, "We are also waiting to see you formation." Here's what some other people said.??
This year, India will commemorate its 74th Republic Day on January 26, and preparations are already underway. People are looking forward to a great celebration on Republic Day 2023, from the flag-hoisting ceremony through the Republic?Day parade and airshows by the Indian Armed Forces.?
Many people will line up early in the morning to get front-row seats, while others will keep their eyes glued to their television sets so they don't miss a thing. While citizens eagerly await every second of the parade, the nation's military has been training for days to ensure that everything is right.?
The parade is held at Rajpath in New Delhi, which has a seating capacity of around 150,000 people. However, due to the COVID-19?pandemic, the number of people attending the parade in recent years has been significantly reduced to comply with social?distancing?guidelines.
In 2021, only a limited number of people were allowed to attend the parade in person, while the majority of the audience watched the event on television. This year, we can see a rise in the number of people attending the live event.
