On this solemn occasion of Vijay Diwas, I extend my heartfelt tribute to the indomitable courage, unwavering dedication, and supreme sacrifices of the brave soldiers of our nation, who stood resolute in safeguarding the sovereignty and integrity of India during the 1971 war.

Every year, on December 16th, we come together to commemorate this historic day, which marks the remarkable victory of the Indian Armed Forces. Vijay Diwas serves as a poignant reminder of the extraordinary valor and selfless service displayed by our soldiers, who ensured the triumph of justice and peace for our nation.
