A wreath laying ceremony was organised Sunday at the war memorial in Dharamshala on the 47th anniversary of Vijay Diwas, marking India's military victory over Pakistan in 1971 war, a defence spokesperson said.

General Officer Commanding of the Rising Star Corps Lt General Y V K Mohan laid the wreath alongwith ex-servicemen, he said, adding that floral tributes were also paid to the slain jawans by a large number of civilians and NCC cadets.

A weapon and equipment display is already on at the war memorial to motivate youth during the ongoing three-day event as part of Vijay Diwas celebrations.

The display will continue on Monday, he said.
