President Draupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday greeted Indian Army personnel, veterans, and their families on Army Day. The President said their unwavering commitment to safeguarding the country's sovereignty and ensuring national security serves as an inspiration to all.

 

The nation gratefully remembers the countless sacrifices you have made in the service of the motherland. On Army Day, I extend my best wishes to Indian Army personnel, veterans, and their families. Your unwavering commitment to safeguarding the nation's sovereignty and ensuring national security is an inspiration to all, the President said in a post on the social media platform 'X'.

 

The President said the humanitarian work done by the Army during crises and disasters is a testimony to their kindness and compassion. Your extraordinary valor and courage will continue to inspire generations to come.

 

'Government is committed to the welfare of the armed forces and their families'

 

Prime Minister Modi said the Central Government is committed to the welfare of the armed forces and their families. In a post on 'X', the Prime Minister said, 'Today, on Army Day, we salute the unwavering courage of the Indian Army, which stands as the sentinel of our country's security. We also remember the sacrifices of the braves who ensure the safety of crores of Indians every day.'

 

He said that our government is committed to the welfare of the armed forces and their families. Over the years, we have made many reforms and focused on modernization. This will continue in the times to come.'

 

Why is Army Day celebrated?

 

On this day in 1949, the then Lieutenant General KM Cariappa became the Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army, replacing India's last British Commander-in-Chief General Francis Butcher. That is why Army Day is celebrated every year on 15 January. Cariappa later became a Field Marshal.
