In the wake of the India Pakistan war, our soldiers on the border are not just fighting a battle, but protecting our honour. Many of them were called back from their leaves, and they made their way to the base by travelling in buses and trains without reservation. With an uncertain situation and fear in our hearts and minds, we could only sleep peacefully because our jawans are there at the borders, protecting us.
It was back in 1999, when India fought a war against Pakistan in the Kargil district of Ladakh. The war that took place from May 1999 to July 1999 saw many valiant soldiers fighting and being martyred. Almost after two months, India successfully regained control of the territory that was intruded by Pakistani forces. Even to this day, we celebrate the day as Kargil Vijay Diwas and recall all our men and women in the uniform who fought for the nation.
