This is the process of the ceremony. The soldiers from India and Pakistan would engage in a shouting match before parting ways with their flags and exchanging handshakes. This was accompanied by the cheers of the onlookers. Witnessing the ceremony in person is a unique experience. Indian side was leading, where the noise was strongest. The crowd on the Pakistani side was smaller, and the thousands of spectators on the Indian side easily outmatched them. At six o’clock, the flags were lowered in unison, folded, and held by the soldiers. The ceremony ended with a handshake between the two sides.
