Republic Day was celebrated by all the Bala Sanskar Kendras of Assam. Teachers and Village elders of Bala Sanskar Kendras unfurl the national flag at their respective centers, followed by the singing of the national anthem, Jana Gana Mana.
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is very happy to inform that some of our Bala Samskar Kendras have participated in these celebrations by performing dramas and wearing costumes of Different Gods, as well as of Gandhi, who is credited with achieving Independence.
In New Delhi, cultural events are organized to celebrate Republic Day across India. Every State also celebrates. Many colleges and universities hold Republic Day celebrations by hoisting the Tricolor flag and remembering the sacrifices of many leaders throughout the centuries.
India's Republic Day, celebrated on January 26, commemorates the adoption of its constitution in 1950, marking the complete transition from British colonial rule to Indian sovereignty. While India gained independence from British rule on August 15, 1947, the country was still governed by the “Government of India Act 1935” during the three-year period from 1947 to 1950, as India didn’t have its own constitution.
Therefore, in 1947, India was just an independent country, freed from the clutches of British rule, but not a sovereign republic.
Uniqueness of Republic Day in 2025
The Indian Armed Forces presented a powerful Tri-services tableau titled “Operation Sindoor: Victory Through Jointness” during the Republic Day parade, symbolizing strength, unity, and the guarding of national sovereignty through transformed defense capabilities.
At the 77th Republic Day Parade, prints of Tejendra Kumar Mitra’s paintings depicting the opening stanzas of ‘Vande Mataram’ adorned the Kartavya Path backdrops. Written by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee in 1875, the song became a rallying cry of the freedom movement and was adopted as India’s national song in 1950. This year, the parade celebrates the sesquicentenary of ‘Vande Mataram’ as its central theme.
The Republic Day celebrations ended on a high note as IAF Rafale jets executed a precision flypast, thrilling spectators and highlighting India’s air power.
