The 26th Martyrdom anniversary of Kargil Hero Havildar Lalak Jan Nishan-e-Haider is being observed today.
Havildar Lalak Jan laid down his life while valiantly defending the motherland during Kargil war in 1999.
On this day in 1999, Havildar Lalak Jan Shaheed demonstrated extraordinary valour by fearlessly repelling enemy attacks and defended his post despite sustaining critical injuries. Refusing evacuation, he continued to fight until he embraced martyrdom in the line of duty.
The ISPR said his legacy remains a beacon of inspiration for present and future generations of Pakistan Armed Forces.
