A delegation of service officers and ladies from Kendriya Sainik Board pinned a token Flag Day lapel on Vice President Mohammad Hamid Ansari on the occasion of "Armed Forces Flag Day" here today.
He donated for Armed Forces Flag Day Fund.
Ansari was presented a souvenir and a calendar prepared by Directorate General, Resettlement and Kendriya Sainik Board on the occasion.
He also took a keen interest in their various activities for the welfare of war widows, children, disabled, blind and ex-servicemen and encouraged them for their selfless service for the welfare of the society.
Since 1949, Armed Forces Flag Day is observed every year on December 7 to pay homage and respect to the martyred army personnel who sacrificed their life for the nation.
