Who is Captain Harshita Raghav? The RVC officer to lead special animal contingent on Republic Day

Captain Harshita Raghav of the Remount Veterinary Corps (RVC) will command a uniquely curated animal contingent at the 77th Republic Day Parade on Kartavya Path. A second-generation Army officer and among the first women inducted into the RVC, she will lead a diverse lineup featuring raptors trained for anti-drone roles, Bactrian camels, Zanskar ponies, mounted cavalry, and indigenous Indian dog breeds. Hailing from Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, Captain Harshita is a graduate in Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry. Her participation marks a historic moment, as the RVC’s special animal contingent will take part in the Republic Day Parade for the first time since the Corps was raised. The Indian Army’s Remount Veterinary Corps is responsible for the breeding, training, and care of all military animals, including horses, mules, and dogs. This year’s uniquely curated contingent includes two Bactrian camels, four Zanskar ponies, four raptors, and multiple army dogs representing five indigenous breeds.
