Imphal, October 31 2016
9 Sector Assam Rifles promoting National unity organised 'Unity Run 2016'
9 Sector Assam Rifles under the aegis of HQ IGAR (South) in the spirit of promoting National unity organised a “Unity Run 2016” for CAPF personnel and school children on the occasion of EKTA DIWAS 2016. A large number of Assam Rifles/ CAPF personnel and students took part in the run.
The run for unity was conducted to commemorate the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, ‘The Iron Man of India’, who was instrumental in unifying the Indian states in the current geo political configuration.
The run was flagged off by Shri Kiren Rijiju, Honorable Union Minister of State for Home Affairs, who was the Chief Guest on the occasion.
The event was flagged off from the historical Kangla Fort, which symbolises the rich culture and traditions of the State. The event was aimed at re-affirming the inherent strength and resilience of our nation to withstand potential threats to its unity and security.
The run also signified the unifying bond between the security forces and the people of Manipur, so that they can work hand in hand towards eradicating insurgency and further enhancing the development of the State.
