Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday paid tribute to 1965 India-Pakistan war martyrs at Amar Jawan Jyoti on the last day of ‘Shauryanjali’ exhibition , set up by the Army as part of the golden jubilee commemoration of the 1965 war.
Prime Minister Modi had earlier urged the people to spend time at the ‘Shauryanjali’ exhibition while addressing the nation in the 12th edition of his ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programme.
“History was recreated at Shauryanjali. We have always heard about the valour of our forces,” he had said. The exhibition being held on the Rajpath lawns, was scheduled to end on September 20, but was extended for two more days after the event received a huge turnout.
