IAF’s Surya Kiran Aerobatic Team to perform at Mysuru Dasara from October 18 to 20
The Indian Air Force's Surya Kiran Aerobatic Team is set to perform a three-day air show in Mysuru from October 18 to 20, coinciding with the Dasara festivities. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh confirmed the squad's participation in a letter to Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, stating that the display will enhance the grandeur of the celebrations and offer Karnataka residents a chance to admire the "professionalism, skill, and precision" of the armed forces.
Rajnath Singh expressed confidence that the performance would be warmly received by the people of Mysuru and visitors attending the Dasara events. However, the letter also clarified that the Sarang Display Team, due to prior commitments, could not be deployed for the festival this year. Rajnath Singh's response came in reply to a letter from D.K.
