National Indian Army Day-15 January
Our defense forces are our pride, they are the one who are always on the borderline to save the nation. They never think twice before sacrificing their lives for the motherland.
In order to recognize the honor and sacrifice the Indian Army makes for the motherland, 15 January is celebrated as Army Day, every year.
Why we celebrate Indian Army Day?
The Indian Army day is celebrated in the memory of Field Marshal Kodandera M. Cariappa’s (then a Lieutenant General) who took rein of Indian army in his hands as the first Commander-in-Chief from General Sir Francis Butcher, the last British Commander-in-Chief of India, on 15 January 1949.
“This world rests on the arms of heroes like a son on those of his sire. He, therefore, that is a hero deserves respect under every circumstance. There is nothing higher in the three worlds than heroism. The hero protects and cherishes all, and things depend upon the hero”.
