India celebrates 26 July every year as Kargil Vijay Day. This day is celebrated in memory of the brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives while fighting Pakistan in 1999. This was not just a war, but an example of India’s courage, unity and sacrifice. In 1999, Pakistan’s army and terrorists together captured the high hills of Kargil. The Indian Army started operation victory to defeat him.

The fight lasted for about 60 days, in which India finally won on 26 July 1999 and hoisted the tricolor on every peak. 527 Indian soldiers were martyred in this war. As soon as this day comes, a wave of patriotism runs in the hearts of every Indian and the sacrifices of the martyrs start coming in front of the eyes. In such a situation, let us know that the most soldiers of which state were martyred in the Kargil war.

Which state soldiers were martyred the most in the Kargil war?

In the Kargil war, 527 Indian soldiers were martyred, including 75 soldiers from Uttarakhand. This number is the highest compared to any state. This small state lost his brave sons from every district, and their martyrdom can never be forgotten. The special thing is that 15 percent of the population of Uttarakhand is of ex -servicemen. The soldiers of Garhwal Rifles and Kumaon Regiment of Uttarakhand set an example of valor in this war. 47 soldiers of Garhwal Rifles alone were martyred, out of which 41 were from Uttarakhand. 16 soldiers of Kumaon Regiment were also martyred.

After Uttarakhand, the highest martyrdom state was Himachal Pradesh, whose 52 soldiers were martyred in this war, Captain Vikram Batra who got posthumously Paramveer Chakra and Rifleman Sanjay Kumar got him as Paramveer Chakra while alive was from Himachal.

India’s victory, but what is the big price

In this war, India spent around 5,000 to 10,000 crores. Air Force operation alone took Rs 2000 crore. But the biggest price was the martyrdom of our 527 brave soldiers. At the same time, Pakistan also suffered heavy losses, about 3000 of its soldiers were killed, although Pakistan has told about only 357 deaths.
