Although India’s Republic Day truly is Jan. 26, Toronto and the GTA will celebrate the anniversary on Sunday Feb. 1, 2015 in the Pearson Convention Centre.
What is the Indian Republic Day?
On Jan. 26 1950, the Constitution of India took effect, making India an independent republic within the British Commonwealth (now the Commonwealth of Nations). The prior system of government in India had retained important roles for British governors.
Note that India had already gained independence from Britain on Aug. 15, 1947. Republic Day is one of three secular national holidays in India. Independence Day is on Aug. 15; and Mohandas Gandhi’s birthday is celebrated as Gandhi Jayanti on Oct. 2.
Republic Day in India is best known for its Republic Day Parade in Delhi, where the celebrations continue for a three day period.
