The nation has solemnly observed the 15th anniversary of Kargil war. Many martyrs of our armed forced laid down their lives for the motherland. We are living and enjoying the fruits of freedom only because those valiant men and women laid down their precious lives. It behooves a great nation like ours that we remember them and pay homage to them whenever there is an occasion. The Defence Minister has announced that a sum of 100 crore rupees has been earmarked for raising a National War Memorial at a very suitable site that will enshrine nation’s homage to our martyrs. This Memorial should have come up long back. But nevertheless, the thankful nation will never forget them. This contemplated memorial will be more like a temple that will epitomize India’s philosophy of Satyameva Jayati, meaning The Truth shall prevail. It will be the temple of truthfulness and peace.
The Memorial will keep us reminding season in and season out that the freedom of the nation demands uninterrupted vigil and sacrifice so that the enemy never gets a chance to do us any harm. It will also beckon us to national unity and oneness of purpose. It will inspire each and every Indian with the spirit of making sacrifices howsoever precious for the solidarity and integrity of the nation. This temple will remind us all the time about the duty that we owe to our motherland.
