The history of India's Paratroopers

The origins of India's airborne forces date back to 1941, when the British Indian Army raised the 50th Indian Parachute Brigade during the Second World War. Indian paratroopers saw action in Burma, where they demonstrated exceptional courage in difficult jungle warfare against Japanese forces.

Following Independence in 1947, India retained and expanded its airborne capability, eventually forming the Parachute Regiment as one of the country's elite volunteer infantry regiments. Becoming a paratrooper is never automatic—it is earned through one of the toughest selection and probation processes in the Indian Army. Only those with exceptional physical fitness, mental resilience, and unwavering determination earn the right to wear the coveted maroon beret and parachute wings.

Forged through conflict

Throughout its history, the Parachute Regiment has played a decisive role in nearly every major conflict involving independent India.

During the 1947–48 Indo-Pak War, paratroopers were rapidly deployed to defend the Kashmir Valley, helping secure vital positions during the conflict's earliest stages.

In the 1965 Indo-Pak War, airborne units conducted daring operations deep behind enemy lines, while the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War witnessed one of the finest moments in Indian military history. The famous Tangail Airdrop, carried out by 2 PARA, saw hundreds of paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines to seize the Poongli Bridge, disrupt Pakistani forces, and accelerate the liberation of Dhaka. The operation remains one of the largest and most successful airborne assaults ever conducted by the Indian Army and demonstrated the decisive impact of airborne forces in modern warfare.

The Regiment has since served with distinction during the Kargil War, counter-insurgency operations, high-altitude deployments, United Nations peacekeeping missions, and countless special operations in defence of the nation.

The birth of India's Special Forces

The Parachute Regiment is also home to India's renowned Para (Special Forces) battalions. These elite units are trained for counter-terrorism, hostage rescue, strategic reconnaissance, direct action, and covert operations in some of the world's most challenging environments.

Their professionalism has been demonstrated in numerous high-profile operations, including cross-border missions and counter-terrorism actions that have reinforced the Regiment's reputation as one of India's premier fighting forces.

A symbol respected around the world

The parachute wings engraved on this glass are more than just an insignia.

They represent volunteers who accepted extraordinary risks, endured demanding training, and pledged themselves to missions where success often depended on courage, teamwork, and absolute trust in one another.

To earn these wings is considered one of the highest honours in military service.
