On 75th Republic Day, PM Modi pagdi sports yellow of ‘Bhagwan Ram’

Recently, PM Modi led the rituals at the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of Shri Ram Lalla in the newly-built Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Mandir in Ayodhya on January 22. So, the yellow colour in his turban is quite significant in many ways.
Along with the beautiful Rajasthani Bandhini print turban, the PM kept his outfit white kurta and pyjama with a brown Nehru jacket. The entire look perfectly conveyed his love for the nation, it's religious beliefs, and represented the ideology of unity in diversity.
PM Modi's turban was first spotted when he arrived at the National War Memorial this morning to honour bravehearts of the Indian armed forces.

At the Independence Day last year PM Modi paired his Bandhani print turban, which had a mix of yellow, green and red colours, with an off-white kurta and churidar and a black jacket as he addressed countrymen from the Red Fort for the 10th time in office.
PM Modi has been carrying forward a unique tradition of wearing distinctive turbans on Republic Day and Independence Day since he took office in 2014.

President of India, Droupadi Murmu heralded the celebrations by unfurling the national flag, followed by a rendition of the national anthem. She then received a 21-gun salute.
