  • A Detachment Under Lance-Naik Karam Singh Wasassigned to Guard a Hill Outpost; Lance-Naik Singh's "Detachment" Con
    A detachment under Lance-Naik Karam Singh wasassigned to guard a hill outpost; Lance-Naik Singh’s "detachment" con- sisted of three men and himself. The outpost was well in ad- vance of the major defensive works held by his company; to ....... attack these defences, the Pakistanis had first to attack the outpost. Early in the morning of ~3 October 19482 an attack was launched against Karam Singh’s position. Although outnumbered by ten to one, the defenders drove off the raiders, receiving only one casualty. Again they attacked, killing another of the Indian defenders; Lance-Naik Singh and his sole remaining comrade tenaciously held their ground. It soon became obvious to Lance-Naik that the supply of ammunition was fast running out. He decided to withdraw;although heavily wounded him- self, Singh carried his remaining comrade, who was fatally wounded, toward the main company defensive lines. To reach these lines he had to pass through heavy enemy small arms and light artillery fire. During this withdrawal, he was wouuded several times but managed to destroy two enemy sections with hand grenades .................... Although badly wounded, Lance-Naik Singh, upon reaching friendly lines,immediately joined the platoon which was clo- sest to the ma~u action. Braving heavy fire which again wounded him, Karam Singh moved from position to position, en- couraging the soldiers and keeping them in high spirits. The offensive was beatenoff. The enemy almost immediately mottuted a fifth offensive. Karam Singh noticed thattwo raiders were quickly advancing through the Indian crawl trenches; there was no time for him to engage them with fire, and he ran forward, bayonetted both the attackers and returned to his o~n lines.

  • 1.7 Param Vir Chakra : Our Heroes
    1.7 Param Vir Chakra : Our Heroes You may have heard about legendary heroes of the past and their extraordinary acts of bravery. But even today many brave soldiers of our country sacrifice their own lives for our safety. Their brave deeds are honoured by bestowing military decorations on them. Param Vir Chakra is India’s highest military decoration. It is awarded for the most conspicuous bravery or some daring or pre-eminent act of valour or self-sacrifice, in the presence of the enemy, whether on land, at sea or in the air. The Param Vir Chakra is a very rare honour. So far, it has been awarded only 21 times. Fourteen of these awards were given posthumously. The medal itself is very simple in appearance. It is made of bronze, and is fi tted with swivel mounting and has a plain purple ribbon. On the obverse, it has the Indian national emblem at the centre, surrounded by four replicas of ‘Indra’s Vajra’. On the reverse, the words Param Vir Chakra are engraved in Hindi and English, with two lotus flowers in between. The Param Vir Chakra medal was designed by Savitribai Khanolkar. She was a European lady, who married Vikram Khanolkar, an Indian Army Officer. Savitribai loved India and took Indian citizenship. She spoke Marathi, Sanskrit, Hindi fluently and had studied Indian arts and traditions in depth. Indra’s vajra or thunderbolt is supposed to be a matchless weapon. But what makes the weapon invincible is the supreme sacrifice of the sage Dadhichi. According to legend, thousands of years ago, a demon had stolen all the water in the world.
