In a formal ceremony attended by dignitaries including the Chief of Defense Staff, the Indian Air Force bid farewell to the MiG-21 fighter jet. The aircraft was hailed as a symbol of national pride, a protective shield, and a mighty machine that served for decades. The speaker highlighted the MiG-21’s decisive role in the nation’s history, particularly its attack on the Governor House in Dhaka during the 1971 war. The event was framed not just as a military tradition, but as an extension of India’s ancient culture of showing gratitude to tools and instruments that empower and protect. A key sentiment expressed was, "Our civilization and our culture teach us that respect should not only be given to humans, but should be given to everything that has contributed to our lives." The ceremony honoured the machine’s long and storied service to the nation.
