speach for republic day
Answers
Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen, first of all, I wish you very Happy Republic Day. It is an important day for all the Indians. Today when a few fellow Indians talk about the fear of losing basic rights that the constitution has given us, this day becomes more important. Since childhood, we are celebrating the republic day as a national festival but we understand the importance of this day when we grow up.
Republic day is celebrated on 26th January. On this day in 1950, the constitution of India came into effect. Our constitution gives us a few rights and a few responsibilities too. We are a democratic country. In society, we have different caste, religion or many other things that separate us but on a broader picture, we all are Indians. The beauty of our country is we have a different language and we also have conflicts and differences but on national festivals, we all stand as a united force.
Since childhood, 26th January has been a memorable day for all of us. Many of us may recall this day as a festival and celebrating it in schools by participating in culture programs or other activities. For a few of us, this is the day we get up to watch the republic day parade. The military parade starts Vijay Chowk and culminates at the Red Fort. The weapons and the equipment that the army shows in the parade reflect the power of our arm forces.
On this day the award and medals of bravery are also given to the armed forces and to the civilians too. The main attraction for the bravery awards is the young kids who showed ultimate bravery besides being young and saved the lives of other people. When the helicopters of the arms forces fly past the parade area and shower the rose petals on the audience everyone feels special. The program ends with the national anthem. Whether you are at home or watching the parade personally you get up to give respect to the national anthem. Its a day that makes us think beyond the caste, religion, state, language and color and we all feel the same emotion of loving our country.
