I express my heartfelt gratitude for the warm invitation for the Vijay Diwas Reception (Swagat Samaroh—At Home Function) at Army House, Delhi, on December 15, 2023. It was an honor to be in the esteemed company of Gen. Manoj Pande, PVSM AVSM VSM and ADC Chief of Army Staff, Indian Army. It is an absolute honor to have had the privilege of meeting the President of India, Smt. Droupadi Murmu, and Jagdeep Dhankhar, Vice President of India at the Vijay Diwas Reception. Our conversation was not just about shared accomplishments but a celebration of resilience, dedication, and the spirit that defines our nation.
