Sarahan 19 February Annual Reunion Conference of Retired Veterans from Army Education Corps to Commence at Maa Jwala Ji's Shrine*

The annual reunion conference of retired veterans from the Army Education Corps, who have formed a non-political organization called All India Mashal Veteran Association six years ago, is set to commence at Maa Jwala Ji's shrine in Himachal Pradesh from February 21 to 23, 2026.

The Army Education Corps is a learned and enlightened corps of the Indian Army, responsible for educating soldiers, map reading, and foreign language proficiency. The retired veterans of this corps have formed the All India Mashal Veteran Association with the aim of creating awareness about education, environment, malnutrition, and other social issues.

The organization is working voluntarily across the country without any government help, providing free services in government schools. Members of the organization have met with Chief Ministers of Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and Rajasthan to offer their services.

In recent years, the organization has launched a successful campaign called "Maa Bharti Ke Naam Ek Paudha" (One Plant in the Name of Mother India), which started from Shri Ram Mandir's Kuber Tila and has spread across the country. The organization distributes free fruit-bearing plants in schools to create awareness about environment and malnutrition.

Each member of the organization works tirelessly with the slogan "Vidyaev Balam, Rashtra Pratham, Sainik Bhi Hum, Shikshak Bhi Hum" (Education is Strength, Nation First, We are Soldiers, We are Teachers), showing respect for their corps.

The annual reunion conference, where senior members of the organization from across the country gather with their families to share their thoughts and experiences, is set to commence at Maa Jwala Ji's shrine in Himachal Pradesh from February 21 to 23, 2026.
