Glimpse Of 72nd Republic Day Parade

India celebrates its 72nd Republic Day today with a shortened program at Rajpath in Delhi amid the coronavirus pandemic. The program began at 9 am and concluded after the traditional fly past 11.25 AM.

Apart from a reduced list of events, the parade also had a shorter route, no chief guest, fewer spectators, no children under 15 in the annual parade, and fewer soldiers in the Army and Navy contingents.

In a display of India’s military might, Rafale fighter jets took part in the Republic Day flypast for the first time as the armed forces showcased its T-90 tanks, the Samvijay electronic warfare system and Sukhoi-30 MKI fighter jets on the Rajpath.

Depicting the nation’s rich cultural heritage and economic progress, 17 tableaux from states and union territories and nine from different Union ministries and paramilitary forces took part in the 72nd Republic day parade.

Six tableaux of the defence ministry also took part in the event.
