August 15, 2020

As a part of Independence Day celebrations, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi unfurled the national flag at Red Fort, many of us witnessed a proud moment. During the unfurling the tricolor, the PM is always assisted by an army officer. This year it was a lady officer: Major Shweta Pandey. 

Major Shweta Pandey is an EME (Electronics & Mechanical Engineer) officer and CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear) defense expert. She belongs to the 505 base workshop of the army.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Defence announced her appointment for the role during the 74th Independence Day celebrations:

Major Shweta Pandey will assist the Prime Minister in unfurling the national flag. The unfurling of the Tricolour will synchronize with the 21 Gun Salute fired by the valiant gunners of the elite 2233 Field Battery (ceremonial).
