Mahavir/Sadqi International Parade Ground

From Bharatpedia, an open encyclopedia

The Retreat ceremony (lowering of the flags ceremony) at Mahavir/Sadqi international parade ground in Fazilka, like Wagah border ceremony and Hussainiwala National Martyrs Memorial, is a daily retreat ceremony ritual in which the security forces of India (Border Security Force) and Pakistan (Pakistan Rangers) are performing daily joint ceremonial drill.[1]

It is alternatively a symbol of the two countries' rivalry, as well as brotherhood and cooperation.

Overview[edit]

It is on the former national highway no. 10 and about 14 km from the District’s headquarters, Fazilka.
