The end came at ripe age of 94 but we cannot forget his contribution to the defence of the country. A tall man (in guts and leadership)who could advise the iron lady (former prime minister of India) not to strike in east pakistan then immediately but littled later when the Indian forces were ready to strike for the win and the gracious pm azgreed. The result was Indian forces under his leadership and planning triumphed and liberated Bangladesh in October 1971. Politician may have ignored his passing away but the people of India can never forget him and his achievement. Salute to this valian soldier. May his soul rest in eternal peace. SSbatish
