BSF conducts first band display and retreat ceremony at National Police Memorial
The Minister and other distinguished guests paid rich tributes to the Police Martyrs at the Memorial.
The Border Security Force (BSF) put up a mesmerizing band display and a perfectly orchestrated retreat ceremony in a befitting homage to the Martyrs.
The somber yet spectacular display was highly appreciated by Shri Kiren Rijiju and all guests present at the venue.
In a charged atmosphere, the memorial site came alive with the outstanding band display by BSF.
The martial tunes played and different formations display by the Brass and pipe band teams of BSF was followed by crisp retreat ceremony by the Seema Praharees who stand as the impregnable wall of India’s first line of defence on Pakistan and Bangladesh Border.
On February 1, 2017, with the initiative of Special Secretary (IS), Ministry of Home Affaris (MHA), Mahesh Kumar Singla, it was decided that every Saturday a band display as well as retreat ceremony will be conducted at National Police Memorial site.
It is a monthly event for all Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs). BSF has the distinguished honour of initiating this solemn ceremony for times to come.
