Потомки победителей прошли маршем по Калькутте

В преддверии 79-й годовщины Дня Победы россияне и индийцы прошли маршем по Калькутте.

В акции, проведённой 5 мая на территории Русского дома, приняли участие 18 человек - семьи российских соотечественников с детьми, самому младшему из которых нет ещё и года, и индийцы-выпускники российских вузов.

Участники акции делились рассказами о судьбах своих дедов и прадедов, об их боевом пути. В рамках шествия была торжественно пронесена 5-метровая Георгиевская лента в знак памяти о подвиге советского народа в Великой Отечественной войне.
