About Veer Gatha Project

Project Veer Gatha, launched under the Gallantry Awards Portal (GAP) in 2021, aims to share the courageous acts and life stories of Gallantry Awardees with students to foster patriotism and civic values. Through this initiative, students have created projects in various formats such as poems, essays, paintings, and multimedia presentations.

Aligned with the Republic Day celebrations each year, Project Veer Gatha has seen great success with its first three editions. In recognition of this, the Ministry of Defence, in coordination with the Ministry of Education, has announced the launch of Project Veer Gatha 4.0 for the 2024-25 session. This edition will conclude with a Prize Distribution Ceremony. Hon'ble Raksha Mantri and Hon'ble Minister of Education have commenced Veer Gatha as 'heralding of a revolution amongst the students of India'.

Project Veer Gatha 4.0 is open to all schools across States and Union Territories, and the best projects will be recognized at the national level by the Ministry of Defence during the upcoming Republic Day.
