Republic Day

REPUBLIC DAY

Date: 26^th January 2021

India recognises 26th January as the day its constitution came into effect and celebrates it as Republic day every year, with pride and enthusiasm. This year marked the 72nd Republic Day of India. It is a day that is imperative to every Indian because it represents the day when India became a democratic republic.

Every year, 26th January is a day on which every Indian heart fills up with devoted enthusiasm and love for the motherland. There are various historical recollections regarding the date as it was on this day when the Indian National Congress passed the Poorna Swaraj resolution or the Declaration of Independence. Ultimately it was on 26th January 1950 when the Indian constitution came into force. Since then, Republic Day is celebrated everywhere in India on this day.

Likewise, IBA also celebrated the day, though in a new way this year, due to the pandemic. IBA is home to students from all over India who take immense pride in celebrating their own culture, tradition and heritage. Along with studies, IBA helps students celebrate national holidays, festivals and events in collaboration with a profound committee called YMCC. This year also, YMCC gave students the chance to be a part of the prominent celebration of the 72nd Republic day.

Students decorated the Auditorium and Amphitheatre with beautiful flowers and artificial flags made by them. The celebrations started with the unfurling of the National flag followed by the recitation of the National Anthem. YMCC committee also organised a zoom call for off-campus students and faculty members to join the celebration. Students were fortunate to hear motivational speeches given by the Director & Dean, Dr Subhash Sharma, Founder CEO & Chairman, Dr Manish Jain, and some of their beloved professors. Students expressed themselves with various singing, dancing, recitation and drama performances. Towards the end, students received medals, for their contribution, during the Marketing Week, organised by Hunterz Ignite, the Marketing Club of the college. They were awarded, by Subhash sir. The successful celebration came to an end with everyone’s support, and everyone dispersed with sweet memories in their heart after the distribution of sweets.
