Ranchi, Sept. 22 -- The Navratra celebration at Jharkhand Armed Police-One (JAP-1) in Ranchi is renowned across the country for its unique traditions that combine devotion, discipline, and martial heritage. Unlike conventional festivities that begin with idol installation, the JAP-1 observance commences with Kalash Sthapana and a ceremonial firing salute.
JAP-1 Commandant Rakesh Ranjan today extended greetings to personnel and devotees at the venue, noting that the ritual, followed by Gorkha jawans for generations, reflects both valor and faith.
"This tradition not only embodies devotion to Goddess Shakti but also mirrors the deep cultural and disciplined spirit of the Gorkha community," he said.
