After the independence of India, Indian Army Day is an important milestone since it signifies India, taking control of its defences.
The Indian Army always reminds us of the strong, disciplined, courageous and brave men and women who risk their lives at every hour for the love of their country.
When we complain about how worse life has become due to the crisis, the people in the Indian Army stand firm and complain about nothing, even though they know that any moment might be their last.
They too have loved ones at home, they too have a family, but they chose the love of the nation over everything else, even above their own life.
