Like every year, this year's parade also showcased beautifully-decorated tableaus that represented the cultural and traditional heritage of various states of our country. As a sense of patriotic fervor takes over citizens of India, here's how you can wish everyone a Happy Republic Day.

Yeh balidan tumhara hai,
