Clean Media Correspondent
New Delhi: 26 jan, (CMC) A strong and resurgent India celebrates its 63rd Republic Day today. This year's parade will highlight the nation's achievements in various fields, the military prowess, scintillating display of air power as also country's rich and diverse cultural heritage. The ceremonial parade is about to begin amidst tight security.
This year, the guest of honour is Thailand's first woman Prime Minister Yinluck Shinawatra.
The highlight of this year's parade will be the 3,000 kms range Agni-IV missile. The Intermediate Range Surface-to-Surface Ballistic Missile mounted on a road mobile launcher is being paraded by the Defence Research & Development Organisation.
The ceremony will culminate with the National Anthem and release of balloons. President Pratibha Patil addressed the nation on the eve of Republic Day and even made a veiled reference to the Lokpal Debate that raged on during the Winter Session of Parliament.
Security has been tightened across the national capital. A ground-to-air security apparatus has been put in place.
The weaponry put on display by the Indian Army includes the T-72 tank, Carrier Mortar Tracked, SMERCH Multiple Launch Rocket System, Pinaka Multi Barrel Rocket System, Full Width Mine Plough, NBC Water Purification Systems and Jammer Station VHF/UHF.
The Army's Mechanized Columns will conclude with a flypast by the Advanced Light Helicopter Dhruv of the Army Aviation Corps.
The Indian Air Force will not make static display of any aircraft but its latest acquisition, the C-130-J Super Hercules tactical aircaft, makes its debut at the Republic Day Parade, with three of the six aircraft acquired from the US participating in the flypast.
