The NCERT has introduced chapters on legendary Indian war heroes, including Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, Brigadier Mohammad Usman, and Major Somnath Sharma, in its academic curriculum to inspire patriotism and lessons on bravery. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to integrate the National War Memorial’s legacy into education, aiming to instill values of resilience and national pride among students. The inclusion of Operation Sindoor further enhances students’ understanding of contemporary national security and the evolving role of India’s armed forces, showcasing the government’s commitment to educating the youth about their heroes and the importance of national defense.
