Important Days
Kargil Vijay Diwas is observed on 26 July to commemorate the victory of the Indian soldiers over the infiltrating Pakistani troops. Kargil Vijay Diwas is commemorated in India to honor the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the Indian Army during the Kargil War in 1999. 'Operation Vijay' was fought by the Indian Army against Pakistan in the Kargil sector of Jammu and Kashmir which is now Ladakh. Kargil War, also known as the Kargil conflict, was fought between May-July of 1999 in the Kargil district of Jammu and Kashmir along the Line of Control (LoC) in which India got victory. Therefore, the day is dedicated to the martyred soldiers of the Kargil war. This year (2022) is the 23rd anniversary of Kargil Vijay Diwas.
