A truly great gentlemen soldier whose contribution to the Nation and the Army is unmatched and unsurpassable.A REAL UNSUNG HERO. With his passing away a golden era in Indian Arms comes to an end.May his soul rest in everlasting peace.

He was not an UNSUNG HERO. Ask any IAF, ARMY, NAVY or for that matter most indian for them he was icon of bravery. He was also one of the board of directors for a long time at INDALCO.

He has got much much more than he deserves. He was a blessed person - and one of those people who get their dues in life time in magnified way - some don't get at all (unsung heroes like many army jawan who dedicated their lives and / or organs for the cause of nation). I have only one grievence (by being the member of an unsung army family) that he did never try to do anything for his fellow comrades.

How did he protect India? What courage he had shown? Do you know anything?
Only one thing he had good management skill - motivating skill and leadership quality. Please don't get confused and don't create of the departed soul.

I need not owe an explanation to you. What events took place in 1971 and how today India weeps over his Death can clearly Justify how much Indians Love "Sam Bahadur".
