PTI | , New Delhi

The Amar Jawan Jyoti flame at India Gate will be extinguished after 50 years and
merged with the flame at the National War Memorial here on Friday, military
officials said.



The Amar Jawan Jyoti was constructed as a memorial for Indian soldiers who were
killed in action in the 1971 Indo-Pak war, which India won, leading to the
creation of Bangladesh. 

It was inaugurated by the then prime minister, Indira Gandhi, on January 26,
1972.

Military officials said on Thursday that the flame of the Amar Jawan Jyoti will
be extinguished on Friday afternoon and merged with the flame at the National
War Memorial, which is just 400 metres away on the other side of India Gate.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on February 25, 2019, inaugurated the National
War Memorial, where names of 25,942 soldiers have been inscribed in golden
letters on granite tablets.
