He said this while addressing an event ‘Shaurya’ organised in New Delhi on Saturday in the run-up to the first anniversary of Operation Sindoor.Rajnath commended the valour, dedication and patriotism of the soldiers, and stated that their ethos of Nation First & Service Before Self have defined India’s military traditions from ancient times to contemporary operations such as Op Sindoor.He said the valour of the defence forces extends beyond the battlefield as they provide humanitarian assistance as first responders during natural disasters within the country and abroad. “Our soldiers use weapons to protect their people, and deliver food & medicines to those in need during the times of crises. This is the defining characteristic of our defence forces,” he said.
