India as an independent, sovereign, and democratic country implemented its constitution on 26 January 1950. Since then, India being the Democratic Republic celebrates a grand ceremony every year to commemorate Republic Day, and a Foreign Leader is invited every year by the Indian Government.
The initial four Republic day parades were held at different places (Red Fort, Ramlila Grounds, Irwin Stadium, Kingsway) between 1950 to 1954. However, in 1955, Rajpath was chosen as the permanent venue for Republic Day celebrations.
On 26 January 1950, Indonesian President Sukarno was the first Chief guest on the very first Republic Day parade of India. Representatives from the United Kingdom and France have been invited 5 times each.
The main purpose of inviting a Foreign Leader is to boost bilateral relations and to show the diversity and prosperity of the Indian culture.
The Chief Guest at India’s Republic Day parade is accorded the country’s highest honour in protocol terms but do you know how the Republic Day Chief Guest is chosen?
Six months before Republic Day, the Indian Government sends the invitation to either the Head of State or the Government subject to the kind of relationship India has with the concerned country.
Before sending the invitation, the approval of the Indian Prime Minister is sought in addition to clearance from the President of India.
