Jaipur Army Day Rehearsal Parade: Jaipur is getting ready to host the Army Day Parade this year, and the state government wants more people to see it. To make this possible, three full rehearsal parades will be held starting from January 9. These rehearsals will be open to the public. The main Army Day Parade will take place on January 15. The goal is to let more citizens feel proud and connected to the Army by watching the parade closely.
One special step this year is that the rehearsal parade on January 9 will be only for women. The state government wants more girls and women to come and watch the parade. Officials are reaching out to different schools, colleges, and institutions to make sure women attend in large numbers.
