Celebrating ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ that commemorates the 75th anniversary of Independence, an elite group of 47 NSG commandos started a ‘Sudarshan Bharat Parikrama’ to cover the length and breadth of the country, on October 2, the Gandhi Jayanti Day.
Tata #Dark Harrier, the rugged SUV from Tata Motors, resonates with the edgy persona of the Black Cat commandos and is the NSG’s vehicle of choice in this expedition, said a press release.
The rally, flagged off by the Union Minister of Home Affairs, Mr Amit Shah, will be driven in 15 Harriers traversing through 18 cities and covering a distance of 7,500 km in less than a month.
Starting from Red Fort in New Delhi, the ‘Sudarshan Bharat Parikrama’ will tour India’s major war memorials and monuments through Agra, Lucknow, Varanasi, Bodh Gaya, Jamshedpur, Kolkata, Bhubaneshwar, Berhampur, Vizag, Vijaywada, Hyderabad, Ongole, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hublii, Mumbai, Ahmedabad and Jaipur.
