THE GEMUNU WATCH VESAK COMMEMORATIONS

All officers and Other Ranks of the Gemunu Watch extended their fullest cooperation to make the annual Vesak celebrations a huge success and a most memorable event. Special Vesak arrangements, conducted with state patronage at Regimental HQ premises and Vesak lantern competitions were also held on the day following the Vesak Poya day. These events were inaugurated by the Centre Commandant, Brig MASK Muhandiram. A Bodhi Pooja on Vesak day (24) at the same venue added sacred aura to the arrangements at Regimental HQ. Members of the Gemunu Watch prepared hundreds of colourful Vesak lanterns to add traditional glamour to these venerated events. Soldiers of the Gemunu Watch provided their active assistance to organize the Vesak Dansela for the many devotees visiting these sites.
