15th Infantry Division (India)

The 15th Infantry Division of the Indian Army, constituted in 1941, is a notable formation with a distinguished operational history. Originally formed during World War II, the division played a significant role in various campaigns, including the Burma Campaign against Japanese forces. Post-independence, it was restructured and has since participated in several conflicts, including the 1965 and 1971 Indo-Pakistani Wars. Stationed primarily in the northern and western sectors of India, the division is known for its versatility and capability in diverse operational environments. The 15th Infantry Division continues to contribute to India's defense strategy, reflecting its long-standing legacy and commitment to national security.
