New Delhi, June 3 (UNI) What began as a heartwarming moment that won applause on the parade ground and admiration on social media has now attracted the displeasure of the Indian Army's senior leadership, with a newly commissioned officer's marriage proposal at the conclusion of the Combat Army Aviation Training School's (CAATS) Passing Out Parade in Nashik being viewed as a breach of established military norms and directives.
On Tuesday, Captain Bharat Bhardwaj surprised his partner, Arushi, with a marriage proposal in front of fellow officers, instructors, family members and guests. Still dressed in his ceremonial uniform after successfully completing his aviation training, the young officer knelt before his partner and asked her to marry him. Overwhelmed with emotion, she embraced him as applause erupted from the gathered crowd.
