For the first time in history, Pune hosted the prestigious Army Day Parade on Wednesday. This year marks the 77th Army Day, featuring a diverse array of contingents that depict the spirit of a modern and future-ready Indian Army. The Army Day Parade commemorates Field Marshal K.M. Cariappa’s appointment as the first Indian Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army in 1949, symbolising India’s post-independence military leadership. (Pics and text/PTI)
