The parade was reviewed by Brigadier Hemant Singh, Commandant of the Army Air Defence Centre, who congratulated the 401 Agniveers on successfully completing their rigorous training and taking their ‘Antim Pag’ (final step) towards joining the ranks of the Indian Army.
The event was marked by an impressive drill display, which was a testament to the high standards of discipline and training imparted at the Centre.
