26 January- Republic Day of India

India is one of the oldest civilizations in the world with a kaleidoscopic variety and rich cultural heritage. It covers an area of 32,87,263 sq km, extending from the snow-covered Himalayan heights to the tropical rain forests of the south. As the seventh largest country in the world, India stands apart from the rest of Asia, marked off as it us by mountains and the sea, which give country a distinct geographical entity. Bounded by the great Himalayas in the north, it stretches southwards and at the Tropic of Cancer, tapers off into the Indian ocean between the Bay of Bengal on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west.
India is one of the oldest civilizations. It is one of the developing countries. It remained for many years under colonial system. Finally it restored it freedom on 15 August 1947. Till then, it is trying to establish its own identity on the world's map.
The India, that was slave for many years, is now raising his head and show how strong it is.
