"Demonetisation helped India to get rid of Corruption, Black money, terrorism and made our economy cashless. Never ever doubt any decision taken by Modiji."
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it

Even 'India Shining' was less gruesome than this. I also remember that around that time these guys used to play recorded messages from AB Vajpai through BSNL landlines. (Edit: mixed up the B and V).

Narendra Modi's note ban to feature in Republic Day parade

The Information and Technology ministry will illustrate the advantages of PM Narendra Modi's demonetisation measure and his pitch for digital banking at the 68th Republic day parade.
  1. It will serve as a fitting metaphor for the prime minister's cashless-economy campaign.
  2. In all, twenty-one floats from different states and ministries will participate in this year's Republic Day parade, India's 68th.
  3. A unit of NSG, the federal force responsible to undertake counter-terror and counter-hijack operations across the country, will also showcase its contingent for the first time in the parade.


India exhibits its military might and cultural diversity every Republic Day. But this year's January 26 parade will feature an additional element - a float highlighting the prime minister's signature drives.

Genuine question. Will we keep celebrating Republic Day every year..forever? I think it is time we start doing it every 5,10, 25 years and so on if at all
[-]pure_haze 2 points (2 children)
Why though? We literally have 2 national holidays a year, decently spread apart. The rest are religious.
[-]immanuel_kant_even 1 points (1 children)
My question is about the longevity of it. Independence day makes sense to me, not a yearly weapons show for Republic Day
[-]GroovyBabua 3 points (1 children)
Republic day is frankly much more independent for the country. That is when we finally adopted our own constitution and got rid of the last of the chains binding up to the colonial opressors
[-]immanuel_kant_even 1 points (1 children)
Fair point, but the parade? Why not just start fun/cultural fairs and stuff, let people have a nice day out
[-]GroovyBabua 1 points
Personally I really like watching the parade. So I am biased in that regard.
We can of course add all sorts of other cultural activities for the day. Cultural fairs etc. as you suggest. I would still keep the parade.
