Armed Forces Flag Day is a day
dedicated to honouring the soldiers and veterans of India's armed forces. It
has been observed annually on December 7 since 1949.
The flag's red, deep blue, and
light blue colours represent the Indian Army, Indian Navy, and Indian Air
Force, respectively.
The Armed Forces Flag Day serves
as a reminder of the bravery and dedication of India's defense forces,
which include the Indian Army, Indian Navy, and Indian Air Force. These forces
work relentlessly to safeguard the country from external threats and maintain
peace and stability.
This day provides a platform for citizens to actively contribute to the welfare of soldiers and their families, while also reflecting on the immense sacrifices made by the armed forces to ensure the nation's safety and prosperity.
The Armed Forces Flag Day Fund is
used to provide for a range of welfare activities, including Financial
Assistance: For the families of martyrs, ex-servicemen, and those who are
disabled due to their service. Educational Schemes: Scholarships and
educational support for the children of armed forces personnel.
This day is observed as a
mark of support and admiration for members of the military services who give
their lives in defense of the country.
On this day, symbolic flags are
flown to raise awareness of the sacrifices made by our military and to promote
donations. Wearing these flags is a straightforward but heartfelt way to show
respect and gratitude.
