A republic is a form of government in which the head of state is not a monarch and the people (or at least a part of its people) have an impact on its government.The word 'republic' is derived from the Latin phrase res publica, which can be translated as "a public affair".
The Constitution of India came into force, and India declared itself a Republic on January 26, 1950, a date thereafter celebrated annually as Republic Day in India. The 26th of January was initially India's "Independence Day", and the adoption of the Constitution on this date was felt able to strengthen its initial meaning.
To mark this occasion, a grand parade is held in New Delhi, the Capital of India along the Rajpath, past India Gate and on to the historic Red Fort in the old quarter of the city.This parade consists of various units of infantry,cavalry and other military units along with various groups depicting indian culture and heritage.It is a treat to watch and is presided over by the president of india.A cheif guest who is head of other nation is invited to watch the indian heritage and culture.
