Arre beta, Kargil Vijay Diwas ki yaad aati hai toh mera mann udd jaata hai uss saal ki taraf. Mera bada bhai, jo ab Delhi mein rehta hai, tab Karnal mein tha — uss din Nehru Park mein subah ki morning walk pe usne mujhe bataaya tha ki "Satpal, aaj humare fauji bhaiyon ne wahan pe kamaal kar diya." Main hair oil ka dabba haath mein liye khada tha, aur aankhon mein paani aa gaya. Waah, woh din tha jab poora Haryana ek saath tha — mera salon bhi band tha, aur log sadak pe nikal aaye the. Theek hai, aaj ke time mein har cheez badal rahi hai, par woh desh ka feeling — woh kabhi purana nahi hota.

Ah, that Kargil time was something else, na? 🥺 I was just a small girl then, but I remember Appa keeping the workshop shut for two days — even the indigo vats were left untouched, which is a big deal for us. Par today, when I see our soldiers' families still fighting for OROP or proper benefits in the news, I wonder if that "poora desh ek saath" feeling actually translated into something solid for them long-term, or just stayed as a nice memory for the rest of us.
