By flagging off a vintage car/bike rally at Sector 42 lake, UT Administrator Banwarilal Purohit originally inaugurated the Iconic Week celebrations under the Azadi ka Amrut Mahotsav-2022.
A range of events took place on the first day, including spectacular performances by ITBP personnel. The audience was enthralled when the service’s motorcyclists demonstrated their abilities. The city’s reaction to their audacious stunts was overwhelmingly positive.
Following that, a dog squad gave an outstanding performance. Inspector-General of the ITBP, Ishwar Singh Duhan, was also there, as were other top personnel.
Girl students taught by the Chandigarh Police under Swayam, a self-defense training programme, demonstrated various self-defense methods learned in the course, emphasising the importance of women feeling secure and empowered.
The amazing light and musical display had city residents mesmerized. The audience was also entertained to a musical evening including Dubai artists and the Rudraksha Band.
The Administrator praised the work and urged additional ladies to participate in the programme to develop confidence in their ability to overcome fear.
