Kargil Vijay Diwas 2023: Paying Tribute to India's Hero, Captain Vikram Batra

Kargil Vijay Diwas is a day that stands as a powerful reminder of the unwavering courage and strength exhibited by the Indian soldiers who bravely fought in the challenging and harsh terrain of Ladakh's Kargil region 24 years ago. This 60-day Indo-Pak war against Pakistani infiltrators in 1999 remains a proud moment for all Indians, a time to hold their heads high and celebrate the triumph of their valiant Army.

The history of the Kargil war dates back to 1999 when the Indian Army launched 'Operation Vijay' in response to Pakistani troops intruding into Indian territory in the Kargil district on May 3. During this intense conflict, 674 Indian soldiers made the supreme sacrifice, and 1363 others were wounded. These brave hearts displayed the epitome of sacrifice for their motherland, showcasing the adage, 'Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori' (It is sweet and proper to die for one's country).

Among the many heroes, one name remains synonymous with gallantry - 24-year-old Captain Vikram Batra, who was posthumously awarded the Param Vir Chakra, the highest battlefield heroism honor.

Captain Batra, born in Himachal Pradesh's Palampur in 1996, joined the Indian Military Academy (IMA) in Dehradun, where he trained for the armed forces. He served with the Jammu and Kashmir Rifles' 13th battalion, the same regiment that engaged in fierce combat with Pakistani infiltrators along the Line of Control (LoC) in Kargil.

Known by the codename "Shershah," Captain Batra achieved a remarkable feat during his most challenging mission - the seizure of Point 4875, securing a decisive victory for the Indian armed forces.

Beyond Shershah, Captain Batra is celebrated as the "Tiger of Drass," the "Kargil Hero," and the "Lion of Kargil." His fellow soldiers recount tales of his bravery and courage during battle, with reports of him taking down at least four Pakistani soldiers.

Tragically, Captain Batra lost his life in action while attempting to rescue another injured officer, Lieutenant Naveen Anaberu, during an explosion.

The Kargil war saw several other brave hearts like Lieutenant Balwan Singh, the youngest Param Vir Chakra laureate, Yogendra Singh Yadav, Lieutenant Manoj Pandey, Rifleman Sanjay Kumar, Lieutenant Keishing Clifford Nongrum, Major Vivek Gupta, Captain Kenguruse, Major Saurabh Kalia, and Naik Digendra Kumar, who displayed extraordinary valor and dedication to the nation.

On this Kargil Vijay Diwas, we pay tribute to the heroism and sacrifice of Captain Vikram Batra and all the brave soldiers who fearlessly defended our nation's honor, reminding us that their legacy will forever live on in the hearts of every Indian.
