India celebrated its 74th Republic Day with glory and great enthusiasm on Thursday. People observed the day with great zeal and extended special wishes and messages to each other. While the celebrations would have been incomplete without the annual parade in the capital city, this year too we saw a grand event organised in Delhi. In the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, President Droupadi Murmu and Vice President Jagdeep Dhankar, the guest of honour - Egypt’s president Abdul Fattah al-Sisi witnessed the spectacular parade passing through the Kartavya Path. It was indeed a unique mix displaying the military might and cultural diversity of India. In the meantime, global leaders also extended their wishes on India’s Republic Day and greeted PM Modi and his fellow countrymen. Joining in the line, the Consulate General of Israel to Midwest India, Kobbi Shoshani also paid a musical tribute on the occasion.
