After 60 years of independence for the first time, the awe-inspiring Rashtrapati Bhavan would be thrown open for common people. In a major attempt aiming to make this splendid building a definite fixture in every tourist’s itinerary, a vast array of plans has been undertaken.

The efforts are already on to enable the tourists to watch ceremonial change of guard from Saturday itself. Even as the tourists will be joined by elite soldiers of both forms of foot and horse-mounted from Raisina Hills up to the gates of the President’s House as the change of guard ceremony undergoes.

A distinct tone of reinvention of the grandeur building and the aura surrounded around it sounded from the officials behind the plan. Accordingly, Dr. Christy Fernandez, Secretary to the President, while talking to media stated that they were reinventing and presenting the ceremony in a new way and with a certain purpose.
