Saksham Bharat- Kargil after 25 Years | Captain Vijyant Thapar, VrC

Twenty-five years ago in the scorching summer of 1999, 527 young warriors of the Indian armed forces fought and died in these cordite-laced, desolate spaces in what was to be India’s first televised war — Kargil. One among them was 22-year-old Captain Vijyant Thapar, VrC, (the Vir Chakra was awarded posthumously for gallantry in the Battle of Knoll) whose short life was one crowded with equal measures of valour, victory and kindness; one that best summed up the adage — “live life king-size” — something he urged his countrymen to do in his last letter to his family. It also said “Please come and see where the Indian Army fought for your tomorrow”
