Rajasthan, popularly known as the ‘Lands of Kings’, is a state situated in northern India.
The state was earlier known as Rajputana and Rajasthan came into existence and got its recognition on March 30, 1949. Hence every year the day March 30th is celebrated as its Foundation Day. The foundation day also pays homage to the valour, strong willpower and sacrifice of the people of Rajasthan.
Rajasthan Day is celebrated on March 30th every year as the foundation day because it commemorates the day on which the state came into existence as a federal entity. The ‘Land of Kings’ celebrates Rajasthan Day with colourful and invigorating events happening all across the state.
Being a shining beacon of the richness of Indian civilisation, Rajasthan is a preserve of ancient & medieval princely heritage showcased in its arts and architecture.
