Bodies battered and minds shattered;
They carried on 'coz Victory mattered

#KargilVijayDiwas
2
The heights stay frozen, not with ice;
But by their blood and sacrifice

#KargilVijayDiwas
3
Sons and fathers, like you and me;
Conquered the peaks and set them free

#KargilVijayDiwas
4
Too many did we lose, too many did we bleed;
But they cared not for their own need

#KargilVijayDiwas
5
Fight they did till their last breath out;
Without a question, nor a doubt

#KargilVijayDiwas
6
Tear soaked letters did their families receive;
Written a few hours before battle-eve

#KargilVijayDiwas
7
Each letter has a story to tell, each word worth its weight in gold;
O how lucky they are, if only they could be told

#KargilVijayDiwas
8
Because the son came later, after a lag;
Enclosed in a coffin, draped in the Flag

#KargilVijayDiwas
9
Forget them not, nor their deeds of yore;
They must be made a folklore

#KargilVijayDiwas
10
For it is the least we can do for those who died;
With the flag in the mind, and the rifle by their side

#KargilVijayDiwas
11/11
Bodies battered and minds shattered;
They carried on because Victory mattered ..

रावण रचित शिव तांडव स्तोत्रम् - शंकर महादेवन

The BESTEST way to start a morning. This one is my personal favourite rendition.
Worth a watch!
हनुमान चालीसा

Another one that plays in my residence every morning. Full energy!
Then there is this one.
His voice has a deep, soothing tone to it. All his shabads reach right within, straight to your soul!

This day in 1999, the ceasefire in #Kargil was in its sixth day, to give the Paakis an opportunity to vacate the heights they were still in possession of. But, true to their 'style', the fcukers, instead of vacating, went about happily mining the approaches to those positions.

Replugging some thoughts on the same.
Canada, this one will haunt you till time's end.

Letting out some thoughts and some facts when it came to Western nations not merely looking away at terrorism aimed at India in the 70s, 80s and the 90s, but in cases, actually encouraging it.
This state sponsored terror cost us dearly then, and costs us dearly even now.

70s - 90s were not very popular years for Govt of India in Western capitals. At best, they looked away when it came to matters that were detrimental to Indian interests and at worst, they actively fomented trouble within Indian borders.
Primary reason was that the ..
