The
Amar
Jawan
Jyoti
in
Jaipur,
Rajasthan
is
a
monument
located
at
Jan
Path
on
the
Jaipur
Nagar
Nigam
road.
Built
to
commemorate
the
soldiers
and
martyrs
from
Jaipur
who
served
India
during
wartime,
it
is
known
for
its
flames
that
never
stop
burning.
A
structure
built
in
pink
sandstone
on
a
black
marble
pedestal,
it
was
built
primarily
to
pay
tribute
to
all
those
brave
soldiers
who
fought
during
the
Indo-Pakistan
War
of
1971.
It
features
an
upturned
rifle
covered
by
a
warhead
which
is
surrounded
on
four
corners
by
torches
that
burn
perpetually
and
light
up
the
place.
These
undying
flames
are
representative
of
the
eternal
spirit
of
these
brave
soldiers
who
are
never
forgotten
owing
to
their
courage
and
sacrifice.
In
the
evening,
the
structure
is
lit
up
in
colours
of
the
Indian
flag.
There
is
a
cenotaph
here
in
gold
which
contains
words
spoken
by
the
soldiers.
There
is
also
a
light
and
sound
show
in
the
evening,
which
is
organised
in
two
languages
(English
and
Hindi).
Moreover,
to
know
more
about
the
structure
and
about
the
wars,
visit
the
on-site
museum.
