Republic day is one of the most important days celebrated in India. It’s a proud moment for Indians because it denotes the power, democracy and freedom of our country. It is celebrated every year on January 26 to honour the date on which the Constitution of India came into effect in 1950. This year marks the 69th republic day.
When I was living in India, I remember that in my school there used to be a Marching Parade, flag hoisting and celebration would end by special meals for us and guests. I still recollect all memories when this day comes.
Now being a grown up the celebration ritual is slightly changed but sense of pride and love for our own land is only increased. One of the best ways to celebrate republic day is watching the grand parade held at the Rajpath in Delhi.
This year republic day 2018 will be more interesting to watch because Leaders from the 10 ASEAN nations listed below will be the chief guests along our India’s prime minister Narendra Modi.
- Thailand
- Vietnam
- Indonesia
- Malaysia
- The Philippines
- Singapore
- Myanmar
- Cambodia
- Laos and Brunei
Without delicious dessert no celebration is complete. So I have made tricolour tart for this celebration. For this you may use home-made tart shell or a store-bought tart. Few other notes are specified under the recipe.
