As we mark 25 years since the Kargil War, we honor Captain Manoj Pandey, a Param Vir Chakra recipient from Rutha village, Sitapur.
Born in 1975, Pandey's journey from a humble background to military heroism embodies sacrificial service.
At 24, he played a crucial role in Operation Vijay, leading a daring mission to liberate Khalubar on July 3, 1999.
His bravery and prophetic words at NDA, "I want to become a Param Vir Chakra awardee," continue to inspire the nation.
