The war in Kargil will go down in the nation’s history as a saga of unmatched bravery and grit of the brave sons of soils who wrested their country’s fate on the battlefield from the jaws of enemies – and offered their own to the motherland.

Havaldar Lalak Jan, Nishan-i-Haider, is one of the many soldiers who rendered the ultimate sacrifice during the war fought at the country’s doorstep with never-seen-before esprit de corps.

The nation will commemorate the martyr’s 23rd anniversary today and refresh his eternal memory laced with a mix of pride and grief.

Jan valiantly defended his post with a handful of men and repulsed numerous Indian attacks leaving behind scores of dead bodies.

Critically injured and bleeding, he refused to be evacuated and repulsed the attack before embracing martyrdom.
