**Chennai, January 27, 2025** – The iconic Ripon Building in Chennai was illuminated in special colours on January 22nd to commemorate India’s 76th Republic Day. The building’s dynamic lighting system, controlled by a sophisticated software program, typically follows a monthly colour sequence. However, this sequence is adjusted for significant observances, with colours chosen to reflect the occasion. For example, blue is used for Glaucoma Day, orange for Bone Day, and pink for Women’s Day. Independence Day is marked with the colours of the Indian flag. The system excludes brown, dark violet, and black, while Sundays feature a vibrant display of all available colours. A Greater Chennai Corporation official confirmed the adjustments to the programming for Republic Day.
