Today is the 73rd Republic Day of India and like every year, this year also, the Republic Day Parade is something many Indians are looking forward for. The parade in New Delhi will begin with Prime Minister Narendra Modi performing a wreath-laying ceremony from the National War Memorial, followed by President Ram Nath Kovind, who is the Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Armed Forces hoisting the Indian flag, marking the start of the Republic Day parade. This year?s Republic Day parade will have special arrangements due to the COVID-19 situation in the country and the national capital. People in the country can watch the Republic Day parade on their TVs, or online on the laptops or smartphones.
Like last year, this year?s Republic Day parade will also not have a chief guest due to the COVID-19 situation. The number of troops in marching contingents have also been reduced from 144 to 96, and the route of the parade has been shortened as well. The parade will start at 10:30AM IST instead of 10AM in order to facilitate better visibility to the parade and flypast, the Ministry of Defence had said earlier. This year, the parade will feature a grand flypast with 75 aircrafts and helicopters of the Indian Air Force.
