Chhattisgarh’s tableau displaying democratic consciousness in tribal culture became the center of attraction
Chhattisgarh’s tableau “Bastar’s Primitive People’s Parliament: Muria Darbar” included in the Republic Day parade on the duty path in New Delhi enthralled the audience.
President Smt. Draupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, many top people of the country, special guests and common citizens were present in the gallery. French President Emmanuel Macron was the chief guest.
The state government had given the responsibility to the Public Relations Department for selecting and presenting the topic of this tableau of the state. The tableau was prepared under the guidance of senior officials and experts after extensive research and investigation on the topics.
The tableau of Chhattisgarh was based on the theme of the Government of India ‘India is the mother of democracy’. This tableau reflects the democratic consciousness and traditions present in the tribal society since ancient times, which is still alive and prevalent in the Bastar division of the state even after 75 years of independence.
In this tableau, under the central theme “Primitive People’s Parliament”, “Muria Darbar” of Jagdalpur and “Limau-Raja” located at Bade Dongar in Kondagaon district were depicted. During the tableau display, folk artists of Chhattisgarh also presented Parab dance on the duty path.
