Homage to Captain Davinder Singh Jass - 25/02/2010

Captain Davinder Singh Jass of the Indian Army, died fighting militants at Sopore in Jammu and Kashmir, along with two other soldiers during a prolonged encounter with militants in Sopore town on February 23, 2010.

The encounter took place after the security forces received information that some militants, including a top commander of Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba, were hiding in the area.

Heads held high as tears poured of friends and relatives while paying their last respects to the young Martyr. "Captain Jass, at such a young age was responsible for leading his men in all the operations which were conducted. He was independently leading operations and has shown immense bravery. And the kind of dedication and commitment he has shown towards the armed forces was evident in all his action," said Lieutenant Colonel Vikas Singh.
