was established in January 2019. It is a national monument built 
by the Government of India in honour of our brave soldiers.
 Let us read
In Bharat’s heartland, a grand sight to behold, 
The National War Memorial, honours brave stories retold.
With respect and grace, it stands with pride, 
Each name etched, each stone, each story to confide.
From battle fields to skies, and to oceans wide, 
They stand for Bharat, side by side.
The eternal flame, in silence it glows, 
Paying homage to their courage that shows.
Their sacrifice, always in our mind, 
In blessed memory, forever remind.
With pride and respect, let’s always remember,
At the National War Memorial, their sacrifice forever.
