THE BRIGADE OF THE GUARDS

◆The Brigade of The Guards is a mechanised infantry regiment of the Indian Army. It was raised as the first “all India”, “all class” infantry regiment of the Army where troops from all parts of India serve together, as opposed to other regiments that recruit from specific regions, ethnic groups, or religions.

◆The Brigade of The Guards distinguished itself by being awarded the greatest number of battle honours after Indian independence. The regiment was the brainchild of Field Marshal K. M. Cariappa, who was the first Indian commander-in-chief (C-in-C) of the Indian Army.

◆He raised the Brigade of the Guards and coined the phrase; “The Guards, The Elite”. The President of India is the Honorary Colonel-in-Chief and the Chief of Army Staff is the Colonel-in-Chief of The Guards.

◆The Guards Regimental Centre is at Kamptee in Maharashtra. The Brigade of The Guards was the senior most line infantry regiment of the Indian Army before its selection and conversion to the mechanised infantry role.

◆It now holds the title of the senior most infantry regiment in an honorary/ceremonial capacity. Together with the Mechanised Infantry Regiment, they form part of the ‘Mechanised Infantry’ arm, part of the Mechanised Forces (along with the Armoured Corps).

DOGRA REGIMENT

●The Dogras, the inhabitants of ‘Duggar’ or Dogra land hail from the Indian states of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and the hilly regions of Punjab.

●The Dogra Regiment traces its lineage to 1858, when the Agra Levy was raised by the British East India Company as part of the Bengal Army. A company from the 4th battalion fought in the battle of Walong in November 1962 and suffered significant casualties against a vastly numerically superior Chinese force.

●On the eastern front, the 9th battalion was responsible for the fall of Suadih, a small village in East Pakistan that was a strong bastion of the Pakistan Army’s most fortified position in the country. This led to the ultimate liberation of East Pakistan and a victory for the Indian Army.

●For this task, 9 Dogra was awarded the battle honour of Suadih. The 5th battalion fought in the Kargil War to capture Tiger Hill. The Dogra Regiment has not only contributed to the United Nations Peacekeeping Forces in the Gaza Strip, Korea, and the Congo, but has also contributed in providing various military observers in various peace keeping operation around the globe.

●The 1st, 3rd and 9th battalions have participated in UN peacekeeping missions.

●The recruitment of troops into the Dogra Regiment has been that of a fixed class composition: 50 percent from Himachal Pradesh, 25 percent from Jammu and Kashmir, and a balance from Hoshiarpur, Nawanshahr, Gurdaspur, and Rupnagar districts of Punjab.

●Enlisting in army is seen as honourable pursuit for Dogras; soldiering has not only become a substantial part of the economic structure of the Dogra hills, but created social and cultural traditions built on the people’s association with the army.
