PUNE (PTI): In view of the coronavirus pandemic, the Passing Out Parade at the National Defence Academy (NDA) in Pune will be held in a "scaled-down" manner and parents of the cadets will not attend it, the institute said on Thursday.
The parade of graduating cadets, a long-cherished tradition, will take place on May 30.
"As a training institution, NDA has quickly adapted to a new normal and is able to complete the spring term," it said in a release.
"But there are still a lot of end of term activities which form part of passing out of a cadet from the academy after three years of rigorous training," it said.
"The passing out will be held on 30 May in a scaled- down manner," it said.
In view of the nationwide lockdown, parents of the cadets will not be able to attend the parade, the premier defence training institute added.
