Aiming to ensure Republic Day telecast a “visual treat” for viewers, the Doordarshan will install 24 high-definition cameras and depute nearly 100 skilled professionals along the Rajpath for the grand event.

Officials said that a highly-skilled team of technical and programming professionals was strategically deputed to cover the event, where the U.S. President Barack Obama will be present as the Chief Guest.

Giving details, an official said that of the 24 HD cameras, two were robotic, while three are jimmy jibs.
