DG @SujanChinoy and the @IDSAIndia team visited the Major Ralengnao "Bob" Khathing Museum of Valour and the War Memorial in #Tawang
#ArunachalPradesh. Major Khathing was a trailblazer - military officer, administrator, diplomat, statesman and people's representative. His role in integrating and developing #Tawang , securing India's borders, rebuilding the North-East region, and strengthening national unity, is a true inspiration for generations to come. The Tawang War Memorial in Arunachal Pradesh honors the 2,420 Indian Officers and Other Ranks who made the supreme sacrifice during the 1962 War. Jai Hind!
