People from every section of the society had taken the glimpses of the parade. After the event, spectators and visitors shared their experience with The Ten News.
A visitor from Uttrakhand showers prised on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said, “He has taken the country into new heights and we have too much expectations to him in days to come.”
