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.
