Good Morning to our honourable principal, my beloved teachers, my supportive 

seniors and my lovely classmates and friends. I am ..., studying in Class..., and have 
been given this opportunity to deliver a speech on Republic Day celebration. As we all 
know, we have gathered here to celebrate the 71st Republic Day of our Nation. 

Republic Day, celebrated every year on 26th January has gained special significance in 
the history of India. Every year, the national event is celebrated with lots of joy and 
festivities to make the event colourful and memorable. Though we got independence 
on 15 th August,1947, it took two and a half years of concerted efforts by our great 
leaders to make the constitution which came into effect on 26th January, 1950.  

“Republic” means the supreme power and citizen living in the Republic nation enjoys 
the rights to elect their representatives to lead and run the country. Thus, in the

Republic India, every citizen enjoys equal rights irrespective of status and gender 
he/she belongs to. 

On this special day, patriotic songs echoes everywhere as every child flutters a tiny 
national flag to mark the occasion. Many schools organise various cultural events to 
make the event memorable. Prestigious awards are given away to martyrs and heroes, 
who dedicated lives to the country.  

Republic Day parade, which takes place in the capital, is a prominent and eye catching 
element of the celebration. It showcases India’s Defence Capability, Cultural and 
Social Heritage. The colorful displays are exhibited by every state which depicts their 
culture. We also invite a chief guest from another country. This shows our tradition of 
“Atithi Devo Bhava.” President of India, who is the commander in chief of Indian 
Armed Forces, takes the salute of all the defence contingents. The prime minister 
gives a floral tribute to the sacrificed Indian soldiers at the Amar Jawan Jyoti, India 
gate. 

People watching from the gallery, on the roads from Vijay Path to Red Fort, through 
the telecast or listening through radio commentary, all get engrossed in the wave of 
national pride. 

I would like to conclude my speech by saying the following lines: 

Freedom in the minds 

Strength in the words 

Pureness in our blood 

Pride in our souls 

Zeal in our hearts 

Let’s salute our India, Jai Hind.
