India Gate is a prominent war memorial and landmark in New Delhi, built to honor Indian soldiers who died in World War I and the Third Anglo-Afghan War. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, it is a 42-meter-tall archway that was inaugurated in 1931. Post-independence, the Amar Jawan Jyoti eternal flame was added to commemorate soldiers who died in the 1971 Indo-Pakistan War, though it was later merged with the National War Memorial’s flame.
