Jai Jawan Jai Kisan
The slogan “Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan” was given by the second Prime Minister of India, Lal Bahadur Shastri.

The slogan was first used during the Indo-Pak war of 1965 to boost the morale of the Indian soldiers and encourage agricultural productivity in the country. It became a popular slogan and is still remembered and used as a patriotic chant in India.
