Amar Jawan Jyoti

Happy Independence Day to all my fellow Indians #jaihind

This Amar Jawan Jyoti is located near Nathula pass (14000 ft) in Indian state of sikkim. This is replica of the the original structure erected at New Delhi. It was constructed after the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 to commemorate the martyred and unknown soldiers of the Indian Armed Forces who died during the war. The pedestal is bound by four urns, one of which holds the eternal flame.
