“There’ll be no more Viceroys, and our people will be the presidents and prime ministers.”
“In the drop of a hat, we used to get in the ‘procession’ mode!”
Ever wondered what it was actually like to see India become the Republic of India? Every year, as our R-day nears, many of us pester our grannies and grandpas with tons of questions about the pre-republic era, just to hear the same anecdotes and experiences of that BIG change. Watch the video as some senior citizens of our country share their memories of our very first Republic Day.
