Kargil Vijay Diwas | Watch Bofors in action and how soldiers are trained for Kargil like war

During the 1999 Kargil war, the Indian Army had faced immense difficulty in recapturing its posts located at several high-altitude peaks in the J&K district after an infiltration took place from the other side of the border or Pakistan. One reason for this was the lack of institutionalised training in mountain warfare in the region. The situation, however, changed in 2000 when the Kargil Battle School was opened for providing pre-induction training to soldiers, who are deployed in the heights along the Line of Control (LoC) in this region. Watch the Bofors gun in action and how Indian army is preparing soldiers with institutionalised training in mountain warfare.
