The Kargil Chronicles: Remembering Captain Vikram Batra: From Fear of Heights to Kargil Hero

When the country needed him, he didn’t even flinch once to fulfil his duty.

This is how we remember our Bravehearts, this is how mothers and fathers tell the stories of Bravehearts like Captain Vikram Batra.

The newly graduate from IMA Batch 101 was Second-in-Command of Delta Company of 13th Battalion of J&K Rifles when the enemy broke the sanctity of agreement and infiltrated our country, thus initiating the Kargil War.

Captain Vikram Batra did the impossible that led to our victory in the war, but this is not how his batchmates remember him.

Did you know our Captain was afraid of heights?

During his academy days, he used to devise new excuses to get out of activities that included climbing heights or a trivial activity such as jumping from a 10m diving board.

When he said ‘Dil Mange More’ who knew he was talking about climbing treacherous heights, ripping the enemy apart, or laying his life to protect the sanctity of our country and protect billions of Indians?
