Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the annual National Cadet Corps (NCC) PM rally on Saturday at roughly 5:45 PM at the Cariappa Parade Ground in Delhi, according to a notification from the Prime Minister’s Office.
NCC is commemorating its 75th anniversary this year. During the ceremony, the Prime Minister will unveil a special Day Cover and a commemorative specially minted coin in the denomination of Rs 75/-, commemorating NCC’s 75 years of success. The rally will be a hybrid day and night event, with a cultural programme on the subject ‘Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat’.
In the traditional Indian spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, 196 officers and cadets from 19 other countries have been invited to join in the festivities.
Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister will visit Asind in Bhilwara district in Rajasthan for the 1111th birth anniversary of Lord Devnarayan, a folk deity of the state, it added.
The birth anniversary of Devnarayan, a deity, revered by the Gujjar community across the country is celebrated as ‘Avataran Mahotsav’. This will be Prime Minister Modi’s third visit to the poll-bound Rajasthan in the last four months.
PM Modi visited Mangadh Dham in Banswara district to pay tribute to tribal leader Govind Guru in November last year and in October, he visited the Sirohi district for a public meeting.
The event, organised by the culture ministry, has come 10 months before the assembly election in Rajasthan.
