When the House met for the day, Naidu mentioned that July 26 is the 22nd anniversary of the Kargil Vijay Diwas.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On this day in 1999, our brave and fearless soldiers defeated the enemy forces who had occupied our territories and retrieved Kargil heights resulting in a momentous victory for our country,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The display of exemplary courage, selfless dedication and unflinching determination towards the mission by our soldiers in treacherous terrain and inclement weather will remain etched in our memory forever. &#8220;The saga of their unparalleled valour and gallantry will continue to inspire generations after generations to dedicate themselves to the cause of the nation,&#8221; he said. Further, Naidu lauded the &#8220;indomitable spirit and supreme sacrifices&#8221; of the brave soldiers. Members rose in their places and observed silence as a mark of respect to the memory of all the soldiers who laid down their lives in the war.<\/p>\n<p>Rajya Sabha also congratulated Mirabai Chanu for winning a silver medal in the women&#8221;s 49 kg category weightlifting event at the Tokyo Olympic Games. &#8220;With her spectacular performance, Mirabai Chanu not only opened the medal tally for the country in this Olympics but also ended a long wait of 21 years for a medal in a weightlifting event at the Olympics,&#8221; Naidu said amid thumping of desks by MPs. He described Chanu as an &#8220;epitome of hard work, grit and determination&#8221; whose achievement will boost the morale of Indian sportspersons in the Olympic Games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;I wish Mirabai Chanu success in her future endeavours and hope that she will continue to bring many more laurels to the country,&#8221; he said.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI: The Rajya Sabha on Monday paid glowing tributes to Indian soldiers who lost their lives in the 1999 Kargil War against Pakistan, with Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu saying the unparalleled valour and gallantry of the country&#8217;s troops in defeating the enemy will inspire generations.
