IAF hosted its annual Air Force Day parade in Prayagraj this year, marking 91 years of the IAF "touching the sky with glory"

THE AIR FORCE DAY PARADE AT PRAYAGRAJ ON OCTOBER 8, 2023, marked a historic moment in the Indian Air Force’s journey, showcasing its commitment to advancement and innovation.

In a magnificent display of grandeur and pride, the Indian Air Force (IAF) commemorated its 91st anniversary with an impressive ceremonial parade at Bamrauli Air Force Station in Prayagraj. This celebration was just the beginning of a series of events to honor the IAF’s legacy and look ahead to a future brimming with innovation and progress.

To commemorate this significant day, the IAF hosted its annual Air Force Day parade in Prayagraj. This move marked a departure from tradition, as the parade was historically conducted at the Hindon airbase near Delhi until 2021, after which it was relocated. Last year, the celebration took place in Chandigarh.
