Kargil Vijay Diwas is celebrated every on July 26. 2019 marks the 20th anniversary of the day. The Kargil war was triggered between India and Pakistan in May-June 1999 after the Pakistani army was found to having intruded into Indian territory across the LoC and occupying various strategic peaks, including Tololing Heights, Tiger Hill and Point 4875 (Batra Top), overlooking the Srinagar-Leh National Highway and targeting traffic on it. While each of the soldiers who participated in the challenging war deserves to be commemorated, there are three among them who deserve special mention. Captain Vikram Batra, Subedar Yogendra Singh Yadav and Captain Anuj Nayyar.
