In a remarkable feat, the Indian Army hoisted the Tricolour underwater at Indira Point, India's southernmost tip, after its first-ever expedition from Siachen Glacier. The expedition, covering 5,500 km through diverse terrains and waterways, was flagged off on July 30, 2024. The team cycled through Ladakh and Himachal Pradesh, paying homage at the National War Memorial in Delhi on August 22. After a 54-day journey, they reached Indira Point on September 21, commemorating the Territorial Army's Platinum Jubilee and honoring the area submerged since the 2004 tsunami.
