After a gap of 26 years, an Indian Army dog squad drawn from the Remount Veterinary Corps (RVC) will be taking part, along with their handlers. The last time an army dog squad had participated in Republic Day parade was in 1990 and before that in 1963.

A 76-member French Army contingent led by a French military band comprising 48 musicians, will also be marching on Rajpath.

For the first time, the parade will see an ex-servicemen tableau where Army veterans will showcase their role in nation building..

All for a Cause. Cause being INDIA as one.

Republic Day Wishes to all INDIANS 🙂
