President Ram Nath Kovind on Tuesday presented wartime praises on the Galwan overcomes, who warded off mathematically unrivaled Chinese soldiers on June 15, 2020. While Colonel B Santosh Babu was after death granted Maha Vir Chakra (MVC) for unprecedented fortitude and authority, five different troopers were respected with Vir Chakra (VrC).
Four of them were granted the VrC post mortem. The MVC is Indias second-most noteworthy wartime heroism grant followed by the VrC.
The post mortem VrC awardees are Naib Subedar Nuduram Soren (16 Bihar), Havildar K Palani (81 Field) Naik Deepak Singh (16 Bihar) and Sepoy Gurtej Singh (3 Punjab). Havildar Tejinder Singh (3 Medium) is the main living beneficiary of the wartime honor.
The ruthless conflict pushed the India-China reciprocal relationship to a limit. Twenty Indian officers were killed in the seven-hour dangerous clash close to Patrolling Point 14 in Galwan Valley, where dwarfed Indian soldiers caused weighty losses for the Chinese Peoples Liberation Army (PLA).
