Come, let us tell you today that story related to the Kargil war that took place 24 years ago, in which the then Prime Minister of India, Atal Bihari Vajpayee's sudden phone call left the then Prime Minister of Pakistan, Nawaz Sharif sweating.
It is about February 1999, when the then Prime Minister of India Atal Bihari Vajpayee was on a tour of Pakistan. He was accompanied by 20-25 people, including actors Devanand, Kapil Dev, and Javed Akhtar.
Vajpayee boarded a bus, crossed the Wagah border and reached Lahore, and warmly embraced Nawaz Sharif, the then Prime Minister of Pakistan. But Pakistan was doing that cowardly act behind its back, which Vajpayee came to know after 4 months.
Nawaz Sharif was chanting peace along with Vajpayee in front of the world and at the same time the Pakistan Army was occupying the Indian land in Kargil, Ladakh, Jammu, and Kashmir. When India came to know about this, it was told by Pakistani officials that Wazir-e-Azam Nawaz Sharif was aware of whatever happened in Kargil. But Sharif denied that he had any knowledge of this.

It was Pervez Musharraf who sent the Pakistani army to Kargil in the name of Mujahideen. Following the leak of conversations between Musharraf and the Chief of General Staff, Lieutenant General Muhammad Aziz Khan, on 26 and 29 May, Vajpayee sent a letter to the then US President Bill Clinton.
After this letter, the pressure increased and the retreat of the Pakistani army started. India threatened America through the mail that if Pakistan does not call back its army then India will also have to counterattack.
Sharif immediately contacted Clinton
Amid the Kargil war tension, Sharif contacted Clinton and told her that he wanted to meet her. The US President agreed to welcome him in Washington. During the three-hour meeting, Clinton telephoned Vajpayee. Clinton suggested to Vajpayee that Pakistan was prepared to call a ceasefire in Kargil if India agreed to resolve the Kashmir issue.
Vajpayee then told that he had told Sharif during his visit to Pakistan that he wanted to resolve the Kashmir issue in 1999 but that was before the attack in Kargil. After this Kargil war which lasted for 74 days, after the mediation of Clinton, Pakistan had to withdraw its army.
