The great war of Mahabharata (The Battle of Kurukshetra) began after blowing #Panchjanya (conch) by Lord Krishna

In the  #BhagavadGita chpt 1, verses 12 to18, most of the warrior blew their transcendental conch-shells (shankas)to start War
His glorious grandsire (Bhishma), the eldest of the Kauravas, in order to cheer Duryodhana, now roared like a lion and blew his conch.

Then (following Bhishma), conches and kettle-drums, tabors, drums blared forth quite suddenly (from Kauravas); and the sound was tremendous.
Then , Madhava (Krishna), and the son of Pandu (Arjuna), seated in their magnificent chariot yoked with white horses,blew their divine conches

Hrishikesa blew the “Panchajanya” and Arjuna blew the “Devadatta”, and Bhima, the doer of terrible deeds,blew the great conch, “Paundra”
Yudhishthira, the son of Kunti, blew the “Anantavijaya”; and Sahadeva and Nakula blew the “Manipushpaka” and “Sughosha” conches.

The king of Kasi, an excellent archer, Sikhandi, the mighty car-warrior, Dhristadyumna and Virata, and Satyaki, blew thr conches
Drupada and the sons of Draupadi, O Lord of the Earth, and the son of Subhadra, the mighty-armed, all blew their respective conches!
