HAPPY REPUBLIC DAY
It was the Lahore session of the Indian National Congress (INC) at midnight of December 31,1929 - January 1,1930 that the Tri-Color Flag was unfurled by the Nationlists and a pledge taken that every year on January 26, the Independence Day would be celebrated and that the people would unceasingly strive for the establishment
of a sovereign Democratic Republic of India. The professed pledge was successfully redeemed on January 26,1950, when the constitution of India framed by the Constituent Assembly of India canre into force, although the Independence from British rule was achieved on August 15,1947.
It is because of this that August 15 is celebrated as Independence Day, while January 26 as Republic Day. ?* DID YOU KNOW *
The most spectancular celebrations include the march past of Three Armed Forces, massive parades folk dances by tribal folk from the different states in pictureque costumes marking the cultural unity of India. Further, the streak of Jet Planes of Indian Air Force (IAF), leaving a Trial of Coloured Smoke (Orange,White,Green),
marks the end of festival. The trees of both sides of the routes and the lawns become alive with spectators. The president of India at New Delhi, on this most colourful day, takes salute of the contingents of Armed Forces. In the states, the Governors take salute,
and in talukas and Administrative Headquarters on same procedure is adopted. At Vijay Chowk in New Delhi, three days later (i.e 29th January) the massed bands of the Armed Forces Beat the Retreat in a Majestic manner.
