Indian Army Organises Solemn Naming Ceremony Of Newly Constructed Kargil Bypass Bridge
The Indian Army organised a solemn Naming Ceremony of the newly constructed Kargil Bypass Bridge, which has been officially named as 'Captain Anuj Nayyar, Maha Vir Chakra Setu' as a tribute to the sacrifices of Captain Anuj Nayyar and soldiers of 17 JAT Battalion and the unwavering support by the citizens of Kargil. Captain Anuj Nayyar made the ultimate sacrifice while capturing Pimple Complex on the Western Slopes of Point 4875 in the Mushkoh Valley during Operation Vijay in 1999 and was posthumously awarded the Maha Vir Chakra, India's second-highest military decoration for the brave act. The naming ceremony was attended by Captain Anuj Nayyar's mother, Meena Nayyar, and her younger son, Karan Nayyar, apart from a few family guests, apart from dignitaries as well and representatives of the 17 JAT Battalion. Meena Nayyar and Karan Nayyar unveiled a commemorative plaque. In her address, she remembered her son and expressed gratitude that Captain Anuj's name will be etched forever in golden words in the history of Kargil. 'Captain Anuj Nayyar, Maha Vir Chakra Setu' will provide an alternate route bypassing the Kargil town, thus significantly improving traffic flow and regional connectivity along the strategic National Highway 1-D. The bridge, which stands as a beacon of patriotism and sacrifice, will continue to inspire the younger generations. The Indian Army remains committed to honouring its heroes and keeping their memories alive for generations to come.

How a 40-yr-old shrine land dispute ended with sweets, not court orders
How a 40-yr-old shrine land dispute ended with sweets, not court orders Team TOI Plus Jul 25, 2025, 16:56 IST IST In a time when disputes over religious sites frequently make national headlines for the wrong reasons, this resolution by Hindus and Sikhs in Varanasi has set a rare precedent A long-simmering land ownership dispute involving a 3,500sq ft plot shared by Hindus and Sikhs in Varanasi has ended amicably after more than four decades. The conflict, dating back to 1980, was rooted in overlapping claims by the Shri Bade Hanuman Temple and a gurdwara on the same land in Jagatganj area. Both places of worship were constructed following a donation from a local resident, but mutual suspicions and attempts to claim full ownership led to escalating tensions. The dispute came to a head after the 1984 assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, which triggered nationwide anti-Sikh riots. In the face of potential violence, the district administration sealed the property as a preventive measure. What followed was a long period of legal limbo and dormancy, with the site locked away and the legal dispute languishing in courtrooms.
