25 years of Kargil Vijay Diwas; Charanjeet Channi backs Amritpal Singh

Today is the big day as this day marks the completion of 25 years of India's Kargil War victory over Pakistan. It was from May to July 1999 that Indian soldiers fought in some of the most difficult conditions and braved harsher weather and tough terrain to win a historic war for the nation. On this occasion, the Kargil War Memorial gears up for a visit by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who would pay tribute to the war heroes there. 

Also, former Punjab Chief Minister and Congress MP Charanjit Singh Channi stoked a row by raising concerns over the detention of 'Waris Punjab De' Chief and independent MP from Khadoor Sahib, Amritpal Singh. This and more in First Up.
