Chhattisgarh to Create Digital Records of Martyred Security Personnel

Chhattisgarh to Create Digital Records of Martyred Security Personnel

The government of a place in India called Chhattisgarh wants to remember brave soldiers who died fighting in a region called Bastar.

These soldiers were fighting against a group called the Maoists, who are also known as Naxals.

The government is going to create special digital records about these heroes.

The records will cover the last 26 years, starting from the year 2000.

People will be able to see these records by scanning QR codes at new memorials.

The memorials will be set up at different places in Bastar.

The idea is to help children and future generations learn about the sacrifices these soldiers made.

The records will also show how the families of the soldiers suffered when they lost their loved ones.

So far, 1,280 soldiers have lost their lives in these battles between 2000 and 2026.

This is the first time something like this is being done.
