The Indo-Tibetan Police Force (ITBP) on Saturday (20 July) began Vijay Diwas celebrations marking India’s victory in the Kargil conflict in which Indian troopers retook a number of positions from Pakistani infiltrators, reports Asian News International (ANI).
The eight-day celebrations will end on 27 July, and during this period the ITBP will organise blood donation camps, sports events, awareness lectures, medical camps, excursion tours for the children, photo gallery and other such events.
Moreover, ITBP will also hold special screenings of Kargil related movies and other short movies with Kargil heroes and protagonists will also be showcased in Himalayan border villages. A five kilometer-long marathon will also be conducted as part of the Vijay Diwas.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
