This year, the parade will be held under the shadow of the third wave of Covid-19 pandemic. With the rise in Omicron cases across the country, this year only a few people are allowed to attend the parade physically. However, even though only a few people can witness the Republic Day parade as it happens along Rajpath, others can also be a part of it virtually. The Ministry of Defence has introduced a new portal http://www.indianrdc.mod.gov.in where the parade will be live streamed. It will also be live telecast on Doordarshan as well as PIB's YouTube channel.

The parade ceremony starts with a visit by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the National War Memorial where he leads the nation to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers. After that, President Ram Nath Kovind will hoist the Tricolour at the Red Fort, followed by the national anthem and a 21-gun salute.
