Indian Army is the Nation’s first line of defence. To keep the Nation’s borders guarded at all times, there is invariably a mandated requirement to train the soldier in current and developing scenarios. Headquarters Army Training Command based in Shimla is entrusted with this important aspect from the time a soldier joins the Army.
Himachal Pradesh, being a major contributor for the Indian Army, it was felt most appropriate to develop a Theme Park in Shimla as a recognition of the soldier’s contribution. It is aimed at being a source of motivation for the youth and youngsters, both locals and tourists.
With this as the aim, this Park has been conceptualized and being dedicated to the local populace of Himachal Pradesh in general and Shimla in particular.
