Kargil Vijay Diwas

India celebrates Kargil Vijay Diwas on July 26 every year to mark the anniversary of the Indian Army's victory against Pakistan on this day in 1999. Kargil Vijay Diwas is observed in honour of the war heroes. Dubbed 'Operation Vijay', the campaign held on July 26, 1999, saw the Indian Army seizing back control of key outposts in Ladakh after ousting Pakistani troops from the region. 22 years of Kargil Vijay Diwas is observed.   

The Kargil War or the Kargil Conflict took place between May 3 and July 26, 1999, in the Kargil district of Kashmir and elsewhere along the Line of Control (LOC). The Kargil war was fought for more than 60 days, ended on 26 July and resulted in loss of life on both the sides.

Indian Army launched a daring assault at Zulu High in Muskoh Valley. Undaunted braveness and unflinching willpower of our troops led to profitable seize of the target.
