India has had a tumultuous history given the fact that it was ruled by the British for decades. This said there have been many incidents that occurred, both good and bad, that Indians still revisit, be it the Civil Disobedience Movement, Jallianwallah Bagh massacre, India’s independence, or it’s republic day. One such key event in the history of India is Army Day which is celebrated on 15th January every year.
15th January holds immense significance for India just as the Independence and Republic Day, however, not many Indians know why.
India celebrates the Indian Army Day on January 15 of every year to honor the bravery, strength, courage, and sacrifices of the Indian army and its army men both living as well as dead for protecting the country and its citizens. On this day the Indian general, KM Cariappa took charge of the Indian army as the commander in chief in 1949. This day marks the transfer of power from the British to independent India.
Since then, our Indian Army, following the motto, “Service Before Self”, has put the protection of our country at the forefront. Along the way, it has also made us proud by accomplishing some of the greatest achievements and victories.
Let’s have a look at some of the most prominent ones:
