A Republic Day. Republic Day is celebrated on 26th January. Because India became a republic on this day. What’s a republic? Something that’s got to do with 1-billion public. People salute flags on this day. There are many types of flags. Some, plain saffron, while others are starry green; to teach his own. Many flags have symbols engraved on them: railway engine, bow-and-arrow, lotuses, elephants, table-clock, haath-ka-panja, etc. There’s also an American flag that appears in the dream of atleast a million Indians, every night. And then, there’s an Indian flag at 20,000-feet, that largely appears to be the property of Indian defence forces who relentlessly defend it’s prestige against an onslaught of frenemies: unknown and own. Bole toh bhidu, bill diya hai, naan kab denge, aye watan inke liye?! #SoldiersHungerPangs
