This year’s ceremonial gun salute at Delhi’s famed Red Fort on Tuesday during the 77th Independence Day celebration was the first time indigenous 105-mm Light Field Guns were utilized. Earlier this year, the gun was fired for the first time as part of a 21-gun salute at the Republic Day parade.
Before the national flag was raised from the Red Fort’s ramparts, Prime Minister Narendra Modi received the Guard of Honour from the Delhi Police and the Armed Forces. “Nation First, Always First” serves as the year’s theme and is also an aspect of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav celebration on the nation’s 77th Independence Day.
Following then, Prime Minister Modi gave his 10th consecutive address to the nation.
Two Indian Air Force Advanced Light Helicopters Mark-III Dhruv began dropping flower petals at the location as soon as the Prime Minister raised the national flag.
