Digital Desk: Indian Air Force (IAF) Chief Marshal Vivek Ram Chaudhari on Sunday unveiled the air force’s new ensign at the 91st IAF Day celebrations in Prayagraj.

During the 91st IAF Day celebrations at Air Force Station-Bamrauli, the Indian Air Force got a new ensign that featured the Union Jack and the RIAF roundel (red, white, and blue) after 72 years.


VR Chaudhari, who unveiled the new ensign, stated, "We need to understand the nuances of the evolving airpower setting the pace to preserve peace, if and when necessary to fight, enabling us to easily adapt to emerging threats and challenges."

The official induction of the Indian Air Force (IAF) in 1932 is commemorated on Air Force Day. The day is celebrated in the presence of the Indian Air Force chief and senior officers every year. The Royal Air Force of the United Kingdom's supporting force was officially raised as the Air Force in 1932, and the first operational squadron was created in 1933.

Earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished the warriors on the occasion of IAF Day. Taking to X, he wrote, "Best wishes to all air warriors and their families on Air Force Day. India is proud of the valour, commitment, and dedication of the Indian Air Force. Their great service and sacrifice ensure our skies are safe."
