India and Bangladesh’s history is a tale of resilience, devotion towards the motherland, and supreme sacrifice. It sure is a chequered history, yet inspirational, exemplifying what it takes to build a nation, to the world!
However, there’s something much more captivating. It is the way India held the hands of its neighbor during its turbulent times. The Indian government supported the cause of Bangladesh’s resistance against Pakistan. And, the military gave its blood and sweat to present the priceless gift of freedom to Bangladesh, back in 1971.
It is to cherish this intricate bond and to express gratitude towards the Indian military that Air Chief Marshal R K S Bhadauria was invited as the Chief Guest on the occasion of the Commissioning of the cadets at Bangladesh Air Force (BAF) Academy.
