On the occasion of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s 125th birth anniversary, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will unveil the hologram statue of the freedom fighter at India Gate.
The ceremony will be held at around 6 pm in New Delhi on Sunday.
For the first time, India is beginning Republic Day celebrations from January 23 instead of January 24. This is being done to include the birth anniversary of late freedom fighter.
The hologram statue, which will be placed until the ‘grand statue’ of Netaji made from granite is completed, will be powered by a 30,000 lumens 4K projector.
