Republic Day 2019 Dons The Theme of ‘Nari Shakti’ (Women Empowerment)

‘A Nation’s culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of its people.’ (Mahatma Gandhi)

The 70^th Republic Day 2019 on 26^th January shall don the theme of ‘NARI SHAKTI’ (Women Empowerment) and shall be presided over by the (Hon.) President of India at its helm. This historically significant day would be made all the more special by an all-women Assam Rifles contingent led by Major Khushboo Panwar at the Parade. It is the oldest paramilitary force of Independent India.

The R-Day and its celebrations is a subject of immense national significance and honour for us all. R-Day preparations are currently on now and the security is on a higher note as well, and it is thus just the time we all discuss the reasons as to why this day assumes significance of such high order. We cover this in our next section named ‘What is Republic Day and why it is celebrated?’

What is Republic Day and Why it is Celebrated?

This remarkable event celebrates the day Constitution of India came into effect on 26^th January 1950. It signifies the birth of the Constitution of India as the force behind the world’s largest democracy.

We believe the discussion above answers your query about ‘What is Republic Day and why is it celebrated?’ This day is an impressive tribute to India’s highly decorated defense force and thus, the Indian National Army contingents prep up the show with some scintillating air and ground show. Another attraction is the ‘Jhaanki’ that showcases every state’s culture, traditions, and heritage in the form of some elaborate visual setups on wheels.

How is it Celebrated?

Drenched in patriotic glory, every Indian citizen waits for this day to show his solidarity with the Constitution of India for the rest of his life. We suggest you spare some time and visit India Gate in New Delhi to see its traditional ceremonies. This event is open for all to witness the country’s excellence in cultural, social, technological, scientific, and military and various other aspects.

These celebrations are well-worth cherishing and if you haven’t enjoyed watching this live parade yet, it’s time you do it this year.
