Hey I live Next to the Place where the Republic Day parade takes Place ....... I watch it every year :).

Although India obtained its independence on August 15, 1947, the Constitution of India has been in effect since January 26, 1950.

To mark the importance of this occasion, every year a grand parade is held in the capital, New Delhi, from the Raisena Hill near the Rashtrapati Bhavan (President's Palace), along the Rajpath, past India Gate and on to the historic Red Fort, The Total Distance is around 9 KM ........ The different regiments of the Army, the Navy and the Air Force march past in all their finery and official decorations ......... The President of India who is the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, takes the salute ....... The parade also includes vibrant displays and floats and traditionally ends with a fly past by Indian Air Force jets.

We have the King's Troop of the Royal Horse Artillery, they are mainly ceremonial. And of course the Blues and Royals.:horsie:
 
I love the pictures. Specially the Amphibious Vehicle and the Camel Mounted Troops. But the quality of pictures itself is excellent. I wish I could live there and see the parade.
Hey what's that building in the background on that camel pic? Looks like Rome he he.
