"At 118 feet, it will indeed be the tallest national flag in Himachal Pradesh," said G.S. Dhillon, director and principal of the school.
"As part of the celebrations, a MIG-21 fighter aircraft is already inside our school campus. The Ministry of Defence has also just cleared the release of a T-54 battle tank, which will add to the pride and prestige of the school," he said.
"The display of defence hardware has a powerful motivational impact on our students -- as also those in the vicinity -- to join the Indian defence services."
