Patton Tank Monument, ChandigarhThe Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 was a culmination of skirmishes that took place between April 1965 and September 1965 between Pakistan and India. The conflict began following Pakistans Operation Gibraltar, which was designed to infiltrate forces into Jammu and Kashmir to precipitate an insurgency against Indian rule. India retaliated by launching a full-scale military attack on West Pakistan.The seventeen-day war caused thousands of casualties on both sides and also witnessed the largest tank battle since World War II. Hostilities between the two countries ended after a United Nations mandated ceasefire was declared following diplomatic intervention by the Soviet Union and the United States, and the subsequent issuance of the Tashkent Declaration.The 1965 war witnessed some of the largest tank battles since World War II. At the beginning of the war, the Pakistani Army had both a numerical advantage in tanks, as well as better equipment overall. Pakistani armor was largely American-made; it consisted mainly of Patton M-47 and M-48 tanks, but also included many M4 Sherman tanks, some M24 Chaffee light tanks and M36 Jackson tank destroyers, equipped with 90 mm guns.Indian Army destroyed as many as 300 Patton tanks. As per Indian Defense News, the Pakistanis would abandon a tank soon after it was hit, fearing that it would catch fire and they would be charred in flames—not the best way to die for a Muslim.This M46 Patton Tank was captured during 1965 Indo Pak War in the battle of Asaluttar Punjab. It was restored and reinstalled during 50th Anniversary. Inaugurated by Shri Vijay Dev, IAS , Advisor to the Administrator, UT Chandigarh on 31st August 2015.It is installed at the parking lot opposite the Chandigarh Government Museum.Photos by Viswas Menon© Viswas MenonWrite up compiled by Viswas Menon

These tanks have been placed at crossroads in various cities of India after the mouth of the Indian Army, which built the graveyard of Pakistani Peyton M46 tanks in the 1965 war. These remind us of our history of victory.
