New Delhi: Kargil Vijay Diwas is observed in the country on 26th July of every year to mark the valour and victory of real-life heroes who fought the battle with life and death to protect the nation in 1999.
It was on this day that the war that lasted for almost 60 days between India and Pakistan in Kargil came to an end. India emerged victorious in this war, terminating the Pakistani infiltrator terrorists and soldiers who had secretly entered the hills of Kargil.
The Indian Armed forces launched ‘Operation Vijay’, finishing the intruders or forcing them to flee. On 26 July 1999, forces completely freed the Kargil hills from the clutches of the Pak Army.
However, more than 500 Indian soldiers were also martyred in the Kargil War. Here is a chunk of wishes, messages and quotes for you to share in honour of the sacrifice of the real heroes of the country.
