Republic Day 2021: Try These Delicious and Easy Tricolour Recipes

Republic Day is observed on January 26 all over India, and this year India will observe its 72nd Republic Day to mark the day our nation became free from the colonial rule of the British, an independent republic after over 200 years. On August 14, 1947, although India gained independence, it was just 3 years later that India's Constitution came into force which is why we celebrate the Republic day as gratitude towards the day when our great leaders gifted our nation the Constitution. 

Republic Day is observed in India with a lot of enthusiasm, and while one might not be able to go out as often because of the coronavirus and participate in celebrations, these tricolor recipes will definitely bring some color to your Republic Day.
