Srinagar, 19 Jul 2021. As a prelude to Kargil Vijay Diwas-2021, a drawing competition
was organised at Army Goodwill School, Farona on 19 July 2021 by Forever in
Operations Division under the aegis of Fire and Fury Corps. The event marks the bravery
and sacrifices of our valiant soldiers, who fought intruders from across the line of control
and ensured the territorial integrity of our nation.
Amidst COVID protocols, a total of 96 children aged between 05 to 14 years from
15 villages of Suru Valley participated in the drawing competition. The event was very
well received by the children who enjoyed the opportunity to interact with their peers,
since schools are closed due to the pandemic. They displayed enthusiasm and creativity
in presenting their ideas through the medium of art. The event highlighted the
commitment of Indian Army to engage with the young generation of this region and foster
the sprit of nationalism.
