PM Modi Pays Homage To Kargil War Martyrs In Drass

DRASS (KARGIL): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday paid homage to the Kargil war martyrs here to mark the 25th anniversary of India’s victory over Pakistan in the 1999 war.

The prime minister laid a floral wreath at the Drass War Memorial to pay tributes to officers and soldiers of the armed forces who made the supreme sacrifice in service of the nation.
