We are lucky on this point in history to have a technocrat prime minister and president. It is ironical that the president has chosen to go in the opposite direction considering the heights he has scaled(Space, atomic energy, defence). He is proving to be sporty too. Hope there are more like him
very very impressive. Really wish I hada chance to see this in person. Can imagine it must really awe inspiring and rather emotional to see such a magnificient display.
Absolutly gorgeous images - makes me proud to be an indian and associated with the navy!
