Republic Day Anchoring Script in English – Morning Assembly Anchoring Script – Republic Day | 26 January 2026
A very good morning to everyone present here.
Respected Principal sir/ma’am, esteemed chief guest, honourable teachers, non-teaching staff, and my dear friends — I extend a warm and respectful welcome to you all on this proud and historic morning.
Today, we stand together not just as students and teachers, but as citizens of a great nation.
A nation that believes in democracy, diversity, and dignity for all.
On this meaningful day, 26 January 2026, India celebrates its 77th Republic Day, commemorating the moment when our Constitution came into force and laid the foundation of the India we live in today.
Understanding the Significance of Republic Day
Republic Day is not merely a date on the calendar. It is a reminder of the values that shape our nation.
On 26 January 1950, India chose to govern itself through a Constitution written by the people, for the people. This Constitution guarantees justice, liberty, equality, and fraternity — principles that guide every Indian, regardless of language, region, or belief.
As students, understanding Republic Day helps us realise that freedom comes with responsibility. It reminds us that discipline, honesty, and respect for rules are not restrictions, but the pillars of a strong democracy.
Beginning the Celebration with Respect
To mark this auspicious occasion, we begin our celebration by honouring the symbol of our unity — the National Flag.
The tricolour does not only represent our past struggles, but also our present duties and future dreams.
Every colour has a meaning.
Every stripe carries a message.
And every time it rises, it fills us with pride.
I respectfully invite our honoured chief guest [Guest Name] to kindly come forward and unfurl the National Flag.
May I request everyone to please stand for the Flag Hoisting Ceremony, followed by the National Anthem, and pay tribute to our nation with full respect and pride.
Reflection After the National Anthem
Thank you. Please be seated.
As the National Anthem echoes, it reminds us that we are part of something larger than ourselves. It unites millions of hearts into one voice. It inspires us to work honestly, live responsibly, and contribute positively to our country.
Role of Students in Nation Building
Dear friends, the future of India does not begin tomorrow.
It begins today — in classrooms, playgrounds, and assemblies like this.
A sincere student today becomes a responsible citizen tomorrow.
When we respect teachers, follow rules, and help one another, we strengthen the very foundation of our nation.
Republic Day teaches us that small actions, when done with integrity, create lasting change.
Cultural Performances Introduction
To celebrate this spirit of patriotism, unity, and cultural richness, our students have prepared a series of performances.
Through music, dance, drama, and poetry, they will express their love for the nation and showcase India’s diversity and strength.
Each performance carries a message.

Let us encourage our performers with attentive hearts and generous applause.
