Delhi’s Red Fort has always been a stage for politics, sometimes bloody, at other times petty. Its history hides layers of drama, both tragic and monumental.
Rahul Gandhi, who enjoys the status of a Cabinet minister, was seated in the fifth row in the VIP area when he came to hear PM Modi’s speech at the Red Fort.
The celebrations kicked off with the assembly of the National Cadet Corps(NCC) and National Service Scheme (NSS) volunteers, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi arriving shortly after through the Lahori Gate of the Red Fort
