- The day marks India's victory in the Kargil War (1999) and pays tribute to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives during Operation Vijay.
- The conflict began in May 1999 after intruders crossed the Line of Control (LoC) and occupied Indian positions in the Kargil sector.
- The Line of Control (LoC) is the de facto military boundary that separates Indian- and Pakistani-controlled areas of Jammu and Kashmir.
- The Indian Army launched Operation Vijay, while the Indian Air Force (IAF) supported it through Operation Safed Sagar to recapture the occupied posts.
- India regained all occupied positions without crossing the Line of Control (LoC), and Operation Vijay was declared successful on 14 July 1999.
