List of war memorials in India : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of war memorials in India This is a list of war memorials in India. The only national war memorial in India is the Amar Jawan Jyoti at India Gate in New Delhi. Amar Jawan Jyoti is a small simple structure, consisting of a black marble plinth, with reversed rifle, capped by war helmet, bounded by four eternal flames, was built beneath the soaring Memorial Archway. Since 1971, it has served as India's Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. India has no official policy on war memorials. The Indian Armed Forces have persistently requested the construction of a National War Memorial, with the names of all war dead inscribed. In 1973, the Army Headquarters noted, "memorials have been constructed by units and formations to commemorate either their war dead or their exploits in battle without reference to Army Headquarters. In certain cases memorials have even been raised for individuals who have either died or were killed in action." The Army Headquarters preferred that a national war memorial be constructed, with the names of all war dead inscribed, and that the "tendency of constructing isolated and very often unimposing memorials by units and formations, which were often difficult to maintain was to be stopped." Due to the delay in constructing a national war memorial, several regional and local war memorials have been and continue to be built by individual military units and formations, as well as by the Centre, state governments and civic bodies.〔 ==List==
