India for peace, but will use might to protect itself: Prez

JALANDHAR: President Ram Nath Kovind today said while India was fully committed to peace, it would use all its might to protect the sovereignty of the nation.

At a function to present the President’s Standards to the 223 Squadron and 117 Helicopter Unit of the Indian Air Force at Adampur in Punjab, Kovind also complimented the air warriors for their “impeccable turnout and smart movement”.

“India’s rise in the international system has many dimensions to it. But it draws heavily from the capabilities and valour of our armed forces,” he said.

The president said citizens slept securely because they knew the forces were there to protect them. (AGENCIES)
