Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi will be the guest of Indian Army today evening, and the Army jawans have kept their weapons such as Khukri, and Lazim ready, but just for dance performances.

Mr. Modi will be at Ahmedabad’s Army cantonment today evening as a Chief guest of “Army Day” function being held here.

“Army Day” is celebrated every year on 15 January to commemorate anniversary of the Indian Army. Today’s Army day marks 63rd anniversary.

Narendra Modi will watch Martial dance forms, Khukri dance, Lazim and Bhangra dance performed by Army personnel at Rawlley stadium in Ahmedabad Cantonment.

This is perhaps Modi’s first visit as a Chief Minister to the cantonment area of Ahmedabad to attend Army function.
