He lived like a Tiger and died like a tiger.With boys like him only this country of crook and disgudting defence minister and other politicians is surviving. May god give peace to his departed soul. I wish all my heartiest sympathies with his parents who gave birth to a son like him. Great Soldier of Indian Army ! we salute you.
Bow to Capt. Harshan. You will shine Your Light in the hearts of all who know about you. Bow to all our Jawans.
I was moved after reading about our brave soldiers and had all these questions in mind. Why do they have to leave us?? Why do we send them away from this world?? Why don%u2019t we let them live their life to the fullest?? Why do we put tears in the eyes of their family?? Why don%u2019t we see that they are on the border right now?? Why don%u2019t we see to it that they are here with us, with their families and not leave this world and us untimely??
Why do we have hundreds of soldiers in line to give the ultimate sacrifice - their life? We don%u2019t know who they are right now neither do they know so %u2013 Lets pray for all of them. Lets pray for their LIFE and SAFETY. Lets pray that we don%u2019t have to see tears in any mother%u2019s eye for the rest of her life.
I request all readers to take a pledge in your hearts to%u2013 Take lead, Spread the word of unity and nationalism. Spread goodness amongst your brothers. Spread the word that enough is enough and we are not going to take it anymore. Spread the word about selfless respect for your country, its borders and its people like the respect you have for your mother. Spread the word that we are one mother%u2019s children and some family members cry so some others don%u2019t have to.
Lets not let the sacrifice of our brothers go in vain. This is the least we can do to respect them.
What is the value of a human life in this highly populated country? So many soldiers like Harshan have died in J&K while fighting the terrorists & anti-nationals, sponsored by Pak and its ISI. If it is a declared war, then we can understand the inevitability of human loss, but why should we lose precious human lives to terrorists. Is it not the duty of the nation, to tackle terrorism and anti-national elements strongly, and ensure the safety of its citizens? Here I find the nation totally lacking. When it comes to taking bold decisions, it dithers and dillidallying, resulting in unwanted and avoidable loss of human lives. Whether it is pak sponsored terrorists, or local Maoists, Naxals, the Govt should deal with them strongly to ensure that they dont succeed in destryong public properties, and also do not harm innocent civilians in any way. No appeasement, no vote bank policies, no party considerations, no coalition considerations should come in the way in such matters. Only national security, and the interest of its citizens should be taken into account. I wonder whehter, and when GOI will behave in this manner.

Leaders come from society, and if society lackes resources then it is hard to be honest for most of people. Second thing common man in India is careless about their rights and resposibilities. This kind of nature of common man makes our system a more ruined. Common man in need social awareness. For this we need leaders like Mahatma Ghandi, Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Kabir, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, Ambedkar etc who reach to people and educate. I remember A TV serial in 80s which was based on Dr Ambedkar, in which he used to teach dalit by reaching in them, mixing in them. He used tell them to be clean, be hard workerm be honest etc. Maulana Abul Kalam Azad worked at ground level for muslims. But after Independence we though we got every thing and we don't need such kind of good work. Then our own people who fougth for freedom became politician instead of social worker so we had to see days like these. But still there are millions of people who really care about India and aware of responsibilites and rights of common man. These people should come forward and interact with masses then writing blogs online becaue our masses does not read these blogs. Every good cause demands sacrifice, or say no pain no gain. This sacrifice is just a small time from busy schedule, we can spend 15 days or one month in villages or among needy people to teach/help them. Motivate them to keep their moral strong. I saw in Narmada Bachao Andolan, their may young guys from elite families who sacrificed their

You make a comment that you are honoured, and then you totally make an insensitive comment not befitting the grave news about Capt. Harshan, by saying something irrelevant about the writer of this article.
I ask, how serious were you when you made a salute to Capt. Harshand and his family?
We are proud of you. Those whom gods love die young. Those who love their country willingly die young.Blessed are the parents who gave birth to this man of valour. I bow my head with respect to thee...
