The team behind Jawa and Yezdi, Classic Legends associated the first-ever Ladakh International Music Festival (LIMF). The initiative is led by the Indian Army to promote the local talent, youth and their love for music. The music festival also pays tribute to the Heroes who have laid down their lives for their motherland. Along with a Jawa-Yezdi pop-up display, the festival witnessed a line-up of renowned local artists and popular Indian bands. The festival saw performances from leading artists and bands from India like Indian Ocean, Tetseo Sisters from Nagaland, Yellow Diaries, Joi Barua and Parashara.

Ride from Leh to Rezang La War Memorial

The music festival was the beginning of the association. After the festival concluded, a fleet of 24 Jawa and Yezdi motorcycles were flagged off from Leh. Onboard the bikes were officers from the Indian Army. They went to Rezang La War Memorial, the highest in the world. This was a tribute to the bravery of 120 soldiers who fought the Chinese Army in 1962. Musician Joi Barua released a specially composed anthem song to mark the occasion.
