Republic Day in India- 69 Years of Celebration

Hi friends its a moment of great pride for me today. This is today that I will be talking about the greatness of the nation I belong to-INDIA.

This blog is a part of the blogtrain of 13 bloggers who have decided to share their views and ideas, on the the occasion of 69th Republic Day, toward India as a nation, its cultures, and people. I would like to thank Manisha, an avid blogger herself, for starting such an initiative from her blog www.wigglingpen.com

Taking this blogtrain forward from Manisha-www.zarahatkeblog.com, I am the 5th blogger in this series of #Right2Write blogtrain.
