After 50 years, the Amar Jawan Jyoti, or “eternal flame,” for warriors at India Gate will be extinguished on Friday and combined with the flame at the National War Memorial. This afternoon, a portion of the flame will be carried to the memorial. The government said that a lot of misinformation was flowing as a result of the decision, which has been widely criticized. “The Amar Jawan Jyoti’s flame will not be extinguished. The flame at the National War Memorial is being merged with it,” the government said.
