Our soldiers miss out on spending time with their friends and families on festivals, Rakshabandhan being one. Having children take time out and celebrate the festival of rakshabandhan with us has definitely been a heart-warming experience for all our soldier who have now been gifted some beautiful memories that they will cherish this rakshabandhan. It is for the safe and secure future of these children that we continue to tirelessly guard our borders. Being respected and acknowledged by children who are the future of this country will surely add to our fervor of serving the nation and its people.”
