Delhi’s tableau has been excluded from the Republic Day parade for the fourth consecutive year, sparking a heated exchange between AAP and BJP leaders. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal criticised the BJP for allegedly sidelining Delhi and its citizens, while the BJP accused Kejriwal of politicising the issue. The Defence Ministry clarified that an expert panel evaluates proposals and a new three-year roster aims to ensure equal representation for all States and Union Territories.
