The Prime Minister of India during the Kargil War, which took place from May to July 1999, was Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
Vajpayee was the leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and headed a coalition government known as the National Democratic Alliance (NDA). He played a pivotal role in leading India's response to the conflict, which involved a large-scale military operation to evict Pakistani-backed infiltrators from the Kargil sector in Jammu and Kashmir.
The Kargil War was a significant event in India's history, and Vajpayee's leadership during this period is remembered for his decisive actions and commitment to safeguarding the country's territorial integrity.
