Claim: Suriname's President Chadrikapersad Santokhi will be the chief guest for this year's  Republic day.
Fact-check: The President of Suriname is not the chief guest for this year's Republic Day - FACTLY
Verdict: this year, india will not have a chief guest for republic day. in view of the changed covid-19 situation in the uk, british prime minister boris johnson had canceled his india visit and expressed his regret for not being able to attend this year's republic day. on the other hand, chandrikapersad santokhi, president of the republic of suriname had delivered a keynote address as a chief guest at the 16th pravasi bharatiya divas  convention. hence the claim made in the post is false.
