Madras Regiment, oldest Indian Army regiment marches down Kartavya Path on 75th Republic Day parade

Indian soldiers well known for their bravery & dedication during the many wars they were involved in👍👍👍🤔

That's discipline!

They look good. 🙄🤨 BUT CAN THEY FIGHT ?????????

Still a fine army. Please don’t follow the stupid West and go woke!

I wonder how often new shoes are needed?

I sense that they march this well because of pride , rather than the PRC military...being told to

I like the turbans

Formed in the 1660’s.

Quite impressive parade. But, by bringing their arms so far back, how do they keep from throwing a shoulder out ?🫡

The comments about British training spot on. Whilst there has been a decline in british army with massive troop cuts the opposite is evident in the Indian.I watched a video of a Lt Colonel I know retirement in the Mess.I commented that it was so like that of the British.He told me exactly the same."we never changed a thing"

excellent precision marching

I want them on my side. God bless you.

This is a force of disciplined focused men , CCP China ... I would avoid them at all costs.

Very smart your RSM will be very proud of you.

Impressive marching!

Now that was awesome, 👍🏻

Their standards of marching discipline would put several armies to shame - ! 😊

Some arms going to be sore at the end of this parade

The sharpest and the smartest-looking troops in the world.

wonderful soldiers , wonderful Army .Respect from the UK

Beautiful. One hopes if they have to fight again it will be in their own interests this time. . .

They could teach a few armies/military around the world how to march in time/step. I enjoy watching the Indian, Nigerian, Jordanian, British military marching as they are truly a joy to behold, far to many others are nothing more than an embarrassment to their drill instructors even when 'on parade' and it is painful to watch them.

Absolutely Excellent Synchronization and that's from a Brit Ex military man who served 10 years, 3 of which were on the Queens Colour Escort Squadron. Timing like that is not as easy as it looks. Well done men. Splendid Eyes Right as well. Great Respect.

Da stimmt alles , Vordermann , Seitenrichtung und klarer einheitlicher Schritt und Armschwung . 👍

Jai Hind!

Excellent marching, nice to see British army drill in its finest.

Your dodgy & painful shoulder had nothing to do with your service 🤣
Seriously though this is very impressive
Respect

And they say the British taught them nothing! But well done India and well done BRICS - the future.

That one white glove going up in sync is inspiring! Very well coordinated!

Very smart...but where are the BRITISH...best in the world...RULE BRITANNIA!!

This is beautiful (from Switzerland)

Very inspiring

Very impressive , but do those guys suffer with arm injuries that is some serious swinging action.

Thank you for your service and help in two world ward

A fine body of men.

Very smart respect from England

Yes but why are they doing the goose step?

Discipline and traininig, magnificent! 👍👍

Perfect Marching !!! Timing Fantastic !!!!

Be proud India!

From Scotland. Very smart. Impressive..

Wait! I thought all the Indians moved to England!

The earliest elements of the Madras regiment was raised by the British East India Company (John Company) to defend their properties. They consisted of the ''outcastes'' or the ''Pariahs''. They fought many wars for the English. In facts they were partly responsible for helping the British to conquer India. The fought in China, Mesopotamia, and many other regions. A British General regarded them as one of the greatest martial races of India. The fought in WW I and WW II. The British never acknowledged their contribution to the British Empire. Despite their courage in the battlefield, they were never awarded the Victoria Cross, so as not to offend the high caste Hindus. They were also known as the ''Thambis''

The highest award, the Military Medal was given to Captain Packianathan of the Madras Regiment, for his daring attack against the Japanese in Burma. With a small force, he attacked and captured more than 100 Japanese troops and their weapons. The relics of that war can be seen in the War Museum at Wellington (Ooty). Ancient Tamil literature describes the Pariahs as the most fearsome warriors. They ruled the Western Ghats (Kerala). They were also called the ''Cheras'' or the ''Monarch of the Hills''. Some Chola rulers used them as their personal bodyguards. The ''Parai'' war drum is their drum. The sound of the Parai puts fear into the enemy. It was because of their martial past, that the Pariahs were suppressed and discriminated. They were a literate people. The ''Kural'' is their work.

somehow if you never think indian troops are strong or powerful.

and you are right.
