India Gate Delhi, also known as the All India War memorial is a 42 metre high giant gate located on Kartavya Path in New Delhi. The India Gate was designed by architect Edwin Lutyens in 1921 and looks similar to iconic monuments such as the Arc de Triomphe in France, the Gateway of India in Mumbai and the Arch of Constantine in Rome. It serves as the tribute to the 84,000 Indian Army Soldiers who made ultimate sacrifice during World War I (1914-21) in regions including France, Flanders, Mesopotamia, Persia, East Africa, Gallipoli and various parts of the Near and Far East, including the Third Anglo-Afghan war. The monument has inscribed the names of 13,300 servicemen on its surface.
