The Indian Armed Forces, consisting of the Indian Army, the Indian Air Force, the Indian Navy and the Indian Coast Guard are India’s shield and sword,

which keep our interests safe, our enemies at bay and the people of our country secure and free. They are respected and adored for their valor and sense of duty by the entire country. Here are some facts of our brave soldiers. India controls the highest battlefield in the world,

the Siachen glacier. India has the biggest "voluntary" army in the

world. Indian soldiers are considered among the very

best in high altitude and mountain warfare. Operation Rahat (2013) was one of the biggest

civilian rescue operations ever carried out in the world.

The Bailey Bridge is the highest bridge in the

world built by the Indian Army in August 1982.

The army is considered as the third largest military contingent in the world next to USA and China.
