"Where valor meets the golden sands. A tribute to the heroes of 1971."
Dec 1971
Operation Nagi
Fought in late December 1971, ten days post-ceasefire, the Battle of Nagi stands as a testament to the unyielding spirit of the Indian Army. When the Pakistan Army occupied a prominent sand dune near Nagi Village, the response was swift and fierce.
On 28 Dec 1971, 4 Parachute Regiment, supported by 9 Parachute Field Regiment and 18 Cavalry, launched a daring counter-attack.
21 Bravehearts (3 Officers and 18 Other Ranks) attained martyrdom, recapturing the sand dune and restoring national pride.
A solemn site featuring a central monument and commemorative plaques honoring the martyrs. Includes a Durga Mata Temple within the complex.
