PSI Shri Mangal Madavi said that every year the Shahid Din is observed all over the state every year to pay homage to the police jawans, who laid down their lives for the country. He said that other than the band playing patriotic songs various other programmes are organized to mark the occasion.
Maha Metro has constructed the band stand at Sitabuldi Interchange station to provide an opportunity to emerging artists to showcase their talent. This year, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) band, Sursangam Music Group and Sajal Music Group had performed on January 26 (Republic Day), August 15 (Independence Day) and October 2 (Gandhi Jayanti). They presented patriotic songs on this occasion. The commuters had responded positively in large numbers.
