Army Day: 15 January

The Indian Army is a symbol of indomitable courage, valour, and sacrifice; it is Mother
India's pride and glory. Every Indian is proud of the selfless service and dedication of
the armed forces. Our army is well-known for its bravery and efficiency. Every citizen
has resolute faith and pride in the army, which protects the country and continues
humanitarian efforts in times of disasters and other accidents.

My best wishes on the occasion of Army Day, especially to our brave
soldiers, respected ex-servicemen, and their families. The Indian Army
is known for its valour and devotion to duty. The invaluable contribution
made by the Indian Army to the security of the nation cannot be described
in words. Indian military personnel serve in difficult terrain and are always
at the forefront of helping their countrymen in times of all humanitarian
crises, including natural calamities. India is proud of its army for making
significant contributions to peacekeeping missions around the world.''
-Narendra Modi, Prime Minister
