Indian Tri-Services Contingent visits France for Bastille Day
Indian Tri services contingent on Saturday practiced in France for the Bastille Day parade on July 14, media reports said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend this year’s parade as the guest of honour at the invitation of France’s President Emmanuel Macron, reports ANI.
The tri-services contingent of the Indian Armed Forces marching alongside their French counterparts left for France on Thursday.
The Bastille Day military parade, also known as the 14 July military parade, translation of the French name of Défilé militaire du 14 juillet, is a French military parade that has been held on the morning of 14 July each year in Paris since 1880, almost without exception.
The parade passes down the Avenue des Champs-Élysées from Place Charles de Gaulle, centred around the Arc de Triomphe, to the Place de la Concorde, where the President stands, along with members of the Government, figures from the legislative branch, the Mayor of Paris, as well as foreign ambassadors to France.
