India Trade Promotion Organisation celebrates 76th Republic Day with grandeur
India Trade Promotion
Organisation (ITPO) commemorated the 76th Republic Day with great pride and
patriotic spirit. The celebration, held at Bharat Mandapam, included the
ceremonial flag hoisting and an inspiring speech by Chairman and Managing
Director (CMD) Pradeep Singh Kharola, who highlighted India’s rich heritage and
its strides toward progress and development.
The event began with the
unfurling of the Tricolour, accompanied by the National Anthem, resonating with
the values of unity and pride. Employees, dignitaries, and stakeholders joined
to pay homage to the principles of the Constitution and reflect on this year’s
national theme, ‘Swarnim Bharat –
Virasat aur Vikas’ (Golden India – Heritage and Development), which
celebrates the harmonious blend of India’s glorious past and visionary future.
In his address, Pradeep Singh
Kharola eloquently connected the core values of the Constitution with the
essence of ‘Swarnim Bharat – Virasat aur
Vikas’, stating:
“Our Constitution is the
foundation of the nation’s journey toward greatness. It instills values of
unity, equality, liberty, and justice. ‘We the people of India’—our first
guiding value—reminds us of the collective strength and responsibility we share
as citizens. The principle of equality ensures that every individual enjoys the
same rights and opportunities. The rule of law binds us together as a fair and
just society, ensuring that independence is exercised prudently and
responsibly.”
Kharola highlighted how these
values empower Indians to excel in diverse fields, from education and
technology to space exploration and quantum energy, making the country a global
leader. He also emphasized the significance of preserving India’s cultural
heritage while embracing innovation and progress, perfectly aligning with the
Republic Day theme.
“‘Swarnim Bharat – Virasat
aur Vikas’ reflects our journey of balancing heritage and progress. ITPO
embodies this vision by preserving the values that define us while driving
innovation and fostering global partnerships. Our commitment is to ensure
India’s voice is heard and its presence is felt on the international stage,” Kharola
stated.
The
celebration culminated in cultural performances by ITPO employees, highlighting
India’s diversity and unity. The event not only honored the values of the
Constitution but also reinforced ITPO’s commitment to contributing to India’s
development in line with the Republic Day theme.
