As India observes its 75th Republic Day today, the significance of this occasion lies in commemorating the day when the nation achieved purna-swaraj (total freedom) and officially became the Republic of India. Two years after gaining independence, the Constitution of India came into effect on this day.

The celebration of Republic Day is marked by military parades and vibrant tableaus depicting various states. The Army, Navy, and Air Force showcase stellar performances in honor of the occasion.
