The Ministry of Power will present its grand tableau, “Prakash Ganga: Powering an Aatmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat,” at the Republic Day Parade on January 26, 2026, highlighting India’s transformative journey in the power sector and its growing leadership in clean and sustainable energy.
The tableau showcases India’s evolution from achieving universal electricity access to emerging as a global clean energy leader, reinforcing the country’s commitment to building a self-reliant and developed nation. The theme “Prakash Ganga,” meaning River of Light, symbolises the seamless and continuous flow of electricity across India’s interconnected national power grid.
A key attraction of the tableau is a robotic Smart Meter model, displayed alongside wind turbine generators, reflecting the integration of digital technologies, automation, and smart solutions aimed at improving efficiency in power management.
The central segment depicts the “Smart Power, Smarter Home” concept, featuring rooftop solar installations that underscore the government’s vision of empowering citizens as ‘prosumers’—both producers and consumers of electricity. A towering transmission structure highlights last-mile connectivity, while an EV charging station and electric scooter illustrate the power sector’s role in enabling clean mobility and supporting a sustainable transport ecosystem.
The rear section highlights India’s renewable energy capabilities through representations of hydroelectric, wind, and geothermal power installations, symbolising the nation’s expanding clean energy footprint. A structure labelled “Switching on India” represents advanced control and monitoring centres that ensure grid stability and uninterrupted power supply.
Mounted on a structure resembling coiled electrical cables, the tableau reflects the scale, resilience, and reach of India’s national power grid, which connects millions of households and industries across the country.
Through its Republic Day presentation, the Ministry of Power will reaffirm its commitment to providing reliable, affordable, and sustainable electricity, supporting economic growth, strengthening energy security, and powering the vision of a Viksit Bharat.
