India Gate is one of the largest war memorials in India.The monument was designed by Edwin Lutyens, the chief architect of New Delhi.The foundation stone of India Gate was laid by the Duke of Connaught, on 10th February 1921.It took approximately 10 years to complete the construction work on the monument, which came to an end in 1931.The walls of India Gate have been inscribed with the names of the Indian soldiers who died in World War I and the Afghan Wars.The monument rises to a height of 42 meters and has many important roads spreading out from it.The arch of India Gate houses a shrine, inside which is the ever-burning Amar Jawan Jyoti.Amar Jawan Jyoti was unveiled on January 26, 1972, by the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.The flame of the Jyoti burns day and night, to remind the nation of soldiers who died in the Indo-Pakistan War of December 1971.The shrine has a black marble cenotaph with a rifle placed on its barrel, crested by a soldier’s helmet.
