Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, Republic Day this year may not be as extravagant as Indians are used to witnessing but the spirit of the day has very much engulfed the city.


On the evening of Monday, Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, BMC headquarters and Mantralay were illuminated in tricolour lights to mark the 72nd Republic Day of the largest democracy of the world.
