The shortest 13 days war which brought laurels to the Armed forces . We veterans only celebrate Kargil Diwas , a one sided war to get back PAK occupied height which they occupied due to own Intelligence failure .

Dear Tri-City Veterans ,

But we seldom celebrate Vijay Diwas in which   90000 PAK soldiers surrendered .A war where Field Marshal SAM told Pak forces to * “You surrender or we  wipe you out*

Where has the spirit gone , Present govt celebrating surgical strike the results of which are yet to be known/seen and its deterrent  effects as was expected ..

The Home Minister Shri  Rajnath celebrating Vijay Diwas with his photo on  the stage Banner instead of Gen Manekshaw and Gen Jagjit Singh Aurora or any war heros.

We say and believe that   true soldier spirit never dies . Here is where  Lt Gen TS Shergill, Sr advisor to CM Pb and Sr Vice chairman GOG went all alone to Chandigarh War memorial and salutes the brave hearts and pays homage to his collegues who have sacrificed themselves for the Nation . We salute him in turn for the spirit he carries with him as a true soldier.

We always crib that the Politicians/ Govts  don’t worry about the Martyrs and their families/children/dependents .  If we ask our self do we care about our brothers or their children,widows except aon occaions /functions for show business and distribute gifts without listening to their woes.  We know non of the Politicians reach out during cremation of Martyred or the Administrative Babus who wait for an order from political bosses to be present , But it very disheartening that we as  veterans don’t reach out at cremations or to the families , so then why blame the Politicians /Govts. If we as Class start caring or attending or celebrating the victories , then only our togetherness spirit will convey the message to the rulers /civilians etc.

Hope veterans will not overlook celebrating Such a historical victorious day of Vijay  Diwas in future and other victory days.

Lets look after the war widows,children or old veteran widows instead of caring for living legends  frequently/

Col Charanjit Singh Khera
