I feel so proud in my heart that my hands are unable to restore the control of the keyboard as I write this.
So I'll copy paste from the Zee News link what was announced just a couple of hours back.
New Delhi: The government on Thursday announced the names of recipients of the gallantry awards that will be given by President Pratibha Patil on Independence Day.
According to reports, this time the government has decided to confer the highest peacetime gallantry award, the Ashok Chakra, to Major Mohit Sharma and Major D Srikumar.
Both will be conferred with the award posthumously.
Besides, four Shaurya Chakra and 131 Kirti Chakra awards have also been announced.
Major Mohit Sharma, a resident of Ghaziabad, was killed in a fierce gun-battle with the militants in Kashmir.
I feel proud with you bhai, i will always miss him & tell our generations to be like him. He will live with our family for times unknown, the bravest of the brave, Shaheed Major Mohit.
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of him .Dont hv words to express ...
ReplyDeleteFor an old and retired teacher, a moment like this is full of mixed emotions. Whereas I would have liked Major Mohit to be alive, up and doing, this is also a moment when I feel remorse and pride simultaneously. That his gallantary and sacrifice have been recognized by the entire nation, it is also a moment of immense personal pride for the DPS Ghaziabad family.
ReplyDeleteSo true, Sir.The moment is really full of mixed emotions..Miss him loads
