Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed of Abu Dhabi be the Chief Guest on Republic Day Parade Ceremony
A contingent of Arab soldiers will march down the Rajpath during the Republic Day Parade Ceremony, where Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed of Abu Dhabi will be the Chief Guest. Ever since the visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to UAE in August 2015 , the first by any Indian premier in 34 years, the two countries have been working on strengthening their bilateral relationship.
Inviting the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi is being seen as an important step to strengthen ties with the Gulf country, where there is a substantial population of Indian expatriates. This is the second visit of the Crown Prince in a span of less than a year. The Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi is also the Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE armed forces. Sheikh Mohammed’s visit is also an opportunity for India and UAE to upgrade the present bilateral relationship to strategic partnership.
It would be the second time when any foreign contingent will be participating in the parade on January 26. Last year, the French marching band had joined the parade in honour of Francois Hollande, who was the chief guest at the Republic Day Parade.
