These are all symbolic sly gestures for shrewed rulers to preserve their hold on ppl whipping emotions at the expense of dead soldiers.A genuine ruler ensures the services are best equipped with best of the armaments and is not handicapped resulting in tragic avoidable casualties during war.
Yes, that should be included as India Gate itself is a memorial for those who died in WW1 , so a section for those who died in the Second War would complete the circle.
Would have loved to see ashoka and shaurya chakra awardees also honoured here…..also defense personnel killed in plane crashes etc

” There is no memorial for those who fallen during second world war” is painful. I’m from a family whose a 19 year old lost his life in 1942.
