INDIA'S REPUBLIC DAY

Aurovalley celebrated India's Republic day with a beautiful morning ceremony with the school children. Republic Day honours the day India's constitution came into effect which was on January 26, 1950. The national flag was proudly hoisted up and one of the students had the honour of opening up the folded flag which had beautiful flower petals tucked inside. Then the national anthem, Jana Gana Mana, was sung by students, teachers, guests and Swamiji.
