IMA holds Passing Out Parade for spring term 2022 cadets in Dehradun

288 young officers passed out from the Indian Military Academy (IMA) in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on Saturday, and are now ready to protect the country's borders. The Indian Military Academy hosted a passing out a procession for its cadets in the backdrop of the famed Chetwode Building's Drill Square.

On Saturday morning, the Passing Out Procession was held in the presence of the cadets' families. As reviewing officer, GOC in Chief Lt Gen Amardeep Singh Bhinder of South West Command was seen saluting the procession.

The Band Symphony and the Multi-Activity Display were among the attractions on display during the passing out procession. Officers from 150 regular and 133 technical courses graduated alongside 89 cadets from eight friendly nations who will join their own armies.

Lt Gen Amardeep Singh Bhinder asked the passing out cadets to uphold the great traditions to which they belong and live with moral and professional standards that make them role models for the coming generations.

"You walk in the tradition of military leaders like Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw and warriors like Major Somnath Sharma, 2nd Lt Arun Khetrapal and Capt Vikram Batra, to name just a few of the great alumni the academy has produced. The best way to honour them is to live with moral and professional standards which make you role models for the generation to come," he said.
