Mumbai: To observe India’s victory over Pakistan in the Kargil War, on July 26^th every year, ‘Kargil Vijay Diwas’ is celebrated in our country. Though the war ended for us in victory, many soldiers lost their lives on the border fighting to save the dignity and pride of their motherland. To honour all the Kargil heroes, living or martyred, the Prime Minister of India pays homage to them at Amar Jawan Jyoti at the India Gate.
