Armed Forces' Big Thank You To Those Fighting COVID-19 Today

The Indian Air Force's jets and transport planes will shower petals on hospitals and places of national importance while the Navy's ships will be lit up today in a show of support to medical professionals and others involved in fighting the coronavirus pandemic. Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat, alongside all the three service heads, announced on Friday the "gesture of special gratitude" will consist of the Air Force conducting flypasts across the length and breadth of the country. Another "gesture of special gratitude" will be helicopters showering petals on hospitals and Army bands playing outside medical buildings in most districts, General Rawat said. The first show of gratitude to health workers was when Prime Minister Narendra Modi requested people to clap for them from their balconies. Then came a show of solidarity with turning off lights and lighting candles. The latest gesture by the armed forces is the third massive display of gratitude to health workers.
