Operation RED Dot – A Patriotic Children’s Book Inspired by India’s Real Heroes

Inside India’s National War Memorial: Courage, Sacrifice & the Children’s Story That Brings It Home

On 8th August 2025, MyGov India released a stirring video journey through our National War Memorial, honouring the extraordinary courage, sacrifice, and unity of India’s armed forces. This isn’t just a monument — it’s a living tribute to the soldiers, sailors, and air warriors who gave everything to protect our freedom.

From the eternal flame of Amar Jawan Jyoti to the four symbolic circles — Amar Chakra (Immortality), Veer Chakra (Bravery), Tyag Chakra (Sacrifice), and Rakshak Chakra (Protection) — every corner of the memorial tells a story of resilience and selflessness.

As parents, we often wonder: How do we pass these values on to our children in ways that inspire, not frighten?
That’s exactly where our children’s book The Adventures of DT — Operation RED Dot comes in.


Why Every Child Should Know About the National War Memorial

The National War Memorial is more than stone and flame — it’s a place where India’s history stands tall. It reminds us that courage isn’t about fighting; it’s about protecting. That sacrifice isn’t just loss; it’s love for one’s nation.

By introducing children to such places and stories, we plant seeds of gratitude, empathy, and pride. The MyGov India video captures it beautifully — from stories of the Battle of Rezang La to the naval heroics of Operation Trident. These are lessons in resilience, teamwork, and service.


Turning Big Ideas Into Stories for Kids

While the memorial’s grandeur can leave us speechless, children connect best through stories. That’s why The Adventures of DT — Operation RED Dot was created.

In this book, DT — a joyful little explorer with a big heart — travels across India meeting the real-life heroes who keep our nation safe. From sky-high jets to snowy borders, from deep-sea missions to science labs, DT uncovers the courage, kindness, and teamwork that make India’s defenders so extraordinary.

The story is told with stunning, world-class 3D illustrations that make it both exciting and comforting for young readers.
