The Ministry of Power will showcase its grand tableau, titled “Prakash Ganga: Powering an Aatmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat”, at the Republic Day Parade on January 26, 2026, presenting India’s evolving power sector and its growing global footprint in clean and sustainable energy.
The tableau narrates India’s journey from achieving near-universal electricity access to emerging as a global leader in renewable and clean energy solutions. The theme, Prakash Ganga, meaning River of Light, symbolises the uninterrupted and seamless flow of electricity across the country through an integrated national power grid.
A key attraction of the tableau is a robotic Smart Meter model, accompanied by wind turbine generators, reflecting the power sector’s increasing reliance on digital technologies, automation, and smart solutions to improve efficiency and transparency. This segment highlights how technology is reshaping power distribution and consumption in India.
The central portion of the tableau presents the “Smart Power, Smarter Home” concept, featuring rooftop solar installations and visually reinforcing the government’s push to empower citizens as prosumers—individuals who both produce and consume electricity. A towering transmission structure depicts last-mile connectivity, while an EV charging station and electric scooter underline the power sector’s role in enabling clean mobility and sustainable transportation.
The rear segment of the tableau focuses on India’s renewable energy strength, showcasing hydroelectric, wind, and geothermal power installations. It also features a structure labelled “Switching on India”, representing modern grid control and monitoring centres that ensure grid stability and uninterrupted electricity supply across the nation.
Mounted on a structure resembling coiled electrical cables, the tableau reflects the vast scale, resilience, and complexity of India’s national power grid, which today connects millions of households and industries across diverse geographies.
Through its Republic Day presentation, the Ministry of Power reiterates its commitment to providing reliable, affordable, and sustainable electricity, positioning the power sector as a key driver of economic growth, energy security, and India’s long-term development goals.
