The timing of the iconic retreat ceremony at the Attari-Wagah joint check post at the Indo-Pakistan border in Amritsar has been revised.

The daily ceremony, which draws thousands of spectators from across the country and abroad, will now be held from 5:30 pm to 6:00 pm.

Earlier, the ceremony used to begin at 5:00 pm and conclude by 5:30 pm. The authorities stated that the change had been made keeping in view the changing weather conditions and daylight hours.

The new timing has come into effect from April 1.

The retreat ceremony, jointly conducted by Indian Border Security Force and Pakistan Rangers, remains a major attraction for both tourists and locals, showcasing discipline, coordination and patriotic fervour.
