Itanagar: In a solemn tribute to the extraordinary courage and sacrifice of the Indian Army, commemorative events will be held at Jaswant Garh War Memorial in Arunachal Pradesh’s Tawang on November 17 and Nyukmadung War Memorial near Dirang in West Kameng district on November 18.

The events will be held to pay homage to the heroic soldiers and resilient local citizens who stood united during the Indo-China War of 1962, symbolizing a legacy of bravery and unity that continues to inspire generations.

The Battle of Nuranang is a testament to the courage of the 4 Garhwal Rifles, led by Rifleman Jaswant Singh Rawat (Mahavir Chakra, Posthumous), Lance Naik Trilok Singh Negi (Vir Chakra, Posthumous), and Rifleman Gopal Singh Gusain (Vir Chakra). These soldiers displayed extraordinary bravery, with Rifleman Jaswant Singh Rawat famously delaying the enemy’s advance for 72 hours, inflicting heavy casualties, and defending his post with unyielding determination. Their sacrifice has left an indelible mark on Indian military history.

The Battle of Nyukmadung is known for its fierce combat and steadfast resistance, this battle highlighted the exemplary leadership and resilience of the Indian Army. With unwavering support from local citizens, the soldiers demonstrated remarkable camaraderie and resolve, epitomizing the unity of a nation under fire.

In the lead-up to the main commemorations, a series of community-focused events have been organized to foster patriotism and strengthen civil-military relations, including painting and lecture competitions in local schools, a Gaon Burha and Ex-Servicemen Mela, bike and cycle rallies, and a medical camp for community welfare.

The celebrations will culminate in a cultural program featuring traditional dances, patriotic songs performed by SELA Brigade troops and students from Jang and Dirang schools, and a live re-enactment of the historic battles, bringing the courage of 1962 to life.

By honouring these historic battles, the Indian Army reaffirms its commitment to upholding the values of selflessness and bravery exemplified by the heroes.
