PM Modi inaugurates National War Memorial in Delhi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday inaugurated the National War Memorial near India Gate that has been built to commemorate the valour and sacrifice of the armed forces personnel who laid down their lives in the service of the nation post Independence.

The Prime Minister inaugurated the memorial by lighting the eternal flame and laying wreaths.

 

Addressing ex-servicemen before the dedication of the National War Memorial to the nation, Modi said the armed forces and national security suffered due to criminal negligence before his government came to power in 2014, in an attack directed at the Congress.
