The daredevil stunts of motorcycle riders, during the full dress rehearsal for the Republic Day.
Republic Day celebrates the coming into force of its constitution. In India, Republic Day honours the date on which the Constitution of India came into force--on 26 January 1950--replacing the Government of India Act (1935) as the governing document of India.
The Constitution was passed in the Constituent Assembly of India on 26 November 1949 and was adopted on 26 January 1950 with a democratic government system, completing the country's transition toward becoming an independent republic. To make the event in a memorable and significant way, every year in New Delhi, capital of India, a grand parade is held which is know as the Republic Day Parade. The 26 January -- Republic Day Parade starts from the Raisina Hill in the neighborhood of the majestic Rashtrapati Bhawan and passes along the Rajpath and ends at the India Gate.
26 January was the date selected for this purpose because it was this day in 1930 when the Declaration of Indian Independence (Purna Swaraj) was proclaimed by the Indian National Congress. It is one of three national holidays in India, other two being Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanti.
The President, Prime Minister and other high rank officials of India make their presence at Rajpath to celebrate the occasion. The President unfolds the National flag as soon as the National Anthem is played and also addresses the nation with Republic Day speech. This is followed by the Grand Republic Day Parade.
