Saturday, Army Chief General Manoj Pande gave the prestigious “President’s Standards” to four Armoured regiments of the Indian Army at an event at the Suratgarh military station in Rajasthan’s Sriganganagar district.
A defense spokesperson said that the President’s Standard, also called the “Nishan,” was given to the 49 Armoured Regiment, the 51 Armoured Regiment, the 53 Armoured Regiment, and the 54 Armoured Regiment during the Standards Presentation Parade.
Gen. Pande told the program that the modern and professional Indian Mechanized Forces are always ready to face new challenges and are committed to protecting the country from all threats, a spokesperson said.
The President’s Standard is the highest honor that the Supreme Commander can give to a military unit for its service to the country.
A smaller military formation or unit is given the President’s Standard, which is the same honor as the President’s Colours.
A spokesperson said that Gen. Pande praised the regiments that got the prestigious award for doing great work.
At the event, tanks and horses from the four Armoured Regiments rode in a parade.
The Chief of the Army Staff looked at the parade and was impressed by the long history of bravery, sacrifice, and traditions shown by the Armoured Corps in both war and peace.
The Indian Army’s Armoured Corps is one of the best ways to fight.
