The rehearsals for Republic Day Parade are underway in full swing. Every Defense organisation of our nation, be it the Indian Army, Paramilitary forces such as Assam Rifles, or Protection forces such as Railway Protection Force shows their might to the nation.
India will celebrate its 74th Republic Day on January 26, 2023. After a couple of years following covid protocols, Republic Day this year will showcase charming tableaus (Jhanki) from different states in front of a large crowd of people at Kartavya Path, earlier, Rajpath, and will also have the chief guest.
It has been an ongoing tradition to invite foreign dignitaries for Republic Day. President of the Arab Republic of Egypt, Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has been invited to attend the grand Republic Day celebration of India. The 68-year-old chief guest, who is also a retired military officer, was re-elected as the president of Egypt in 2018 and has been serving as the president of Egypt since 2014. This is the first time a leader from Egypt will be the chief guest.
