To commemorate National Reading Day, a "Donate a Book" campaign has been launched by District Administration. Further, a Street Library has been started at Bus Stand Sirhind to welcome people to pick, browse, take home and read the books they like! @dprofatehgarh1

Delightful little experiences - indeed the Spice of Life!
Sunam is a historic town in Punjab and is home to a lot of well-known people. The town has a distinct character of its own and everyone knows everyone.

The 48th Regular and 32nd Technical Course of IMA Dehradun presented a beautiful gift to the academy to mark 50 years of their commissioning.
Late Brig BS Shergill’s wife Harinder Shergill unveiled the gift.
A series of celebrations but a solemn remembrance for us! I am sure my father would be happy that my mother & I joined at the wreath laying ceremony at Veer Smriti, Chandimandir for his 50th year of commissioning! We were there.. Proud without doubt - but sad and lonely! – at Chandigarh, India
The year 2021 would have been a year of celebrations for us - but for this ghastly day 21 years back.. My father would have turned 70 in March & would enthusiastically be preparing for the Golden Jubilee course celebrations in November! Wish he was with us! ❤️ – at Patiala, India

Prawns, pineapple and Paragon provided comfort on a long solitary trip away from family.. Looking forward to Paranthas at home tomorrow! #Thiruvanthapuram
Passengers borrowing shields from one another to click pics and saving their own to take back for kids back home! Defeating the purpose.. #COVID
