A military festival organised by the UK Defence Sikh Network is looking to encourage more Sikhs to join and improve their experience in the Armed Forces.

The event marks the Holla Mohalla festival, which was originally started as a gathering for Sikhs who would practice military exercises and mock battles to remind people of valour and defence preparedness.

Major Deljindr Singh Virdee, Royal Army Medical Corps, told Forces News it made "perfect sense" that Sikh personnel marked the festival.
