CRPF Valour Day, also known as Shaurya Diwas, is commemorated every year on 9th April to honor the unmatched courage, patriotism, and sacrifice of our brave armed forces-especially the soldiers who stand fearless in the face of danger to protect the nation.
This day marks a significant chapter in India's military history, especially for the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), remembering the heroic stand taken in the battle of Sardar Post, Gujarat, in 1965.
The CRPF is one of the paramilitary forces in India, which plays a vital role in maintaining law and order and combating internal security threats. The day honours the bravery and sacrifice of CRPF personnel, especially those who fought fearlessly during the battle of 1965 at Sardar Post in the Rann of Kutch.
