68 years ago, the Indian constitution came into force after a long struggle for freedom from the British rule. India did not have a fixed or permanent constitution since 1950 after India got its independence in 1947. Dr Rajendra Prasad took oath on this day as India's first president of India. This day, since then, holds great significance to us. The eve of Republic day is marked by a speech made by the President of India and on January 26 a grand parade is held at Rajpath in New Delhi. Apart from enjoying the celebrations, television celebrities plead to be more responsible towards our national duties and bring more peace and joy in the living.

It’s the time we are enjoying our republic day. It would be difficult to conclude that whether India has really achieved anything substantial since the first Republic Day. While there has been progress and development and the people have more money to use, there is an increase of genuine problems we face be it corruption, discrimination or security for females. We need to be more responsible towards our nation. That’s how the best republic day can be celebrated.

Republic day is an important time to realize our patriotism towards our country. And be concerned about our national duties. Every citizen of India is expected to be patriotic and pay importance and respect to its history. Being patriotic is synonymous with celebrating the important milestones of the country and Republic day is one such event. We need to aim making India the most amazing and beautiful nation.

Democracy is a very important part of the Constitution of India. Today we have a strong democracy. India has a fair and independent judicial system. Republic day celebrations are important to bring out the patriotic emotions and remember our duties towards the nation.

We must feel the dedication of ourselves for the nation and bring out the efforts towards the nation for making it truly republic. We should think and relate to the freedom struggle once happened and dream of establishing a classless, co-operative, free and happy society. We must aim fully free, happy, peaceful and cultured nation while celebrating the Republic day.

Delhi which hosts the Republic Day with the grand parade has achieved the distinction of crime capital of India. There is more hi-fi corruption, Rapes in the corridors of power here than anywhere else. I wish this republic day we make the country most amazing and beautiful place. No violence, No corruption, No rape. Let’s understand and value the struggle our leaders did for us and make the nation better for the coming tomorrow.

We celebrate Republic day with great pomp, enthusiasm and glory. As important governmental laws and acts were laid down on this day and hence it also marks as a day of pride for every Indian. But today somehow, we miss standing on our responsibilities towards our nation. The day is also about checking on ourselves if we follow our national duties. If we are living for a great tomorrow. For a perfect republic day, we need to think of making the nation peaceful and corruption free.

Understanding the importance of our responsibilities towards the nation is a big deal today. We talk, protest and fight for the worthless topics. I wish this republic day we should help ourselves by realizing our duties and truly honouring the people who made an independent India possible. It’s a day to be made sure that the sacrificed lives were not spent in vain. Hence, this day should be celebrated by every Indian citizen as a sign of respect to the historic freedom fighters.
