A glimpse of these Made in India helicopters will be seen in the main Independence Day celebrations on August 15. For the first time, two ALH Dhruv helicopters will be used to shower flowers during the event at the Red Fort.
The tradition of showering flowers at the primary Independence Day gathering venue near the Red Fort started in 2021, for which the Russian-made Mi-17 V5 was inducted. Defense sources said that this year, two ALH Dhruv helicopters would be used for showering flowers after the flag hoisting by the Prime Minister at the Red Fort.
PM Modi will give his tenth consecutive speech from Red Fort. There is already a lot of enthusiasm among the people about what message the Prime Minister will provide from the Red Fort. Let us tell you that while speaking on no-confidence in Parliament on Thursday, PM Modi praised ALH Dhruv helicopters.
The helicopters made by HAL are a significant achievement of the Defense Public Sector Unit. The Prime Minister will provide a speech to honor the participants after the flower shower, which 1800 special guests will attend. Defense Ministry spokesperson A Bharat Bhushan Babu tweeted that around 1,800 special guests from different walks of life across the country would be part of the Independence Day celebrations in the capital.
