I was excited to see hard working Indian men and women making the final preparations for the Republic Day parade. Can’t wait for Friday to be at the parade.

Dd missing all fighters so far.

DD messing it up, as usual. Their commentary is off-sync, and the idiotic commentators don't even realize it. Looking at a 4-fighter formation, and mindlessly reading the written script and calling it as a 3-plane transport formation!

[SidSom]

Oh boy this Air coverage and commentry is ......not good

[Rakesh]

I remember one RD parade, when the announcer stated a three fighter MiG-29 formation was flying by and DD captured a bird flying past the camera.

Macron was clearly enjoying the royal treatment, especially the chariot ride from Rashtrapati Bhavan to the Kartavya Path, never mind French republicanism and guillotines and all that

Modi and co surely know how to flatter someone with atithi devo bhava !

It was great to see Tejas fly past at last over the parade despite all the haze.
