TEZPUR: Army's Gajraj Corps in Assam today paid homage to the martyrs of the 1971 war with Pakistan, remembering the sacrifices of the brave soldiers who made the supreme sacrifice.

Today marks the day in 1971 when the Indian Army spearheaded by Gajraj Corps had brought about the capitulation of East Pakistan leading to the birth of a new nation Bangladesh, said its Chief of Staff Maj Gen D K Purohit addressing the army veterans.

Maj Gen Purohit also emphasised on the re-employment opportunities for retired soldiers, including information on Defence Security Corps expansion and assistance facilitated by the Army Welfare Placement Organisation (AWPOs).

Officers and men of Gajraj Corps laid wreaths at the War Memorial to remember the sacrifices of the soldiers.

The wreath laying was followed by a Veteran's Mela attended by over 500 ex-servicemen, including Veer Naries ( women) and their families from nine Divisional Ex-Servicemen Associations of Sonitpur District where Gajraj Corps is situated.

The year 2012 has been declared as the 'Year of Veterans' to honour Ex-servicemen who have served the nation with dedication for an entire lifetime and today's Veteran Mela and Rally was to commemorate the occasion, defence sources here said.
