About 20 floats showcased India's cultural heritage and the economic progress that the country is making. Air India, Jet Airways -- which is just entering the American market -- and Dish and Direct television networks which carry dozens of Indians channels, also brought out their tableaux.
A cultural show, which included popular and classical dances, attracted around 5,000 people who braved the hot sun to see and applaud the participants.
