The same people keep doing the same thing and scoring self goals. On one hand the Hon'ble PM is naming 21 islands after those decorated with #ParamVirChakra on the other hand on #ParakramDivas questioning surgical strikes? It's the same people, everytime destroying the party!
Lt. Gen. Hooda who carried out the surgical strikes joined the Congress! Today is #ParakramDivas ! Why would anyone speak about #surgicalstrike at such a time ! Not the first time these self goals are scored !!
#BharatJodoYatra
To clarify Lt Gen Hooda did not join the Congress but prepared a comprehensive report on India's National Security that he presented to the then Congress President Rahul Gandhi ji. But the drift of my tweet and substance is understood and stands.

Maj Somnath Sharma was the first-ever recipient of the highest military decoration for his gallant efforts and sacrifice in the Battle of Badgam. (1/5)
On 03 Nov 1947, realizing the gravity of the situation of the Indo-Pak War and Srinagar, Maj Sharma urged his company to fight the enemy tenaciously. With extreme bravery he kept rushing across the open ground to his sections exposing himself to heavy and accurate fire. (2/5)
Maj Sharma's company held on to its position till the last man, last round. The casualties suffered by tribal infiltrators caused them to lose impetus to advance. This bought time for Indian forces to fly into Srinagar airfield and blocked all routes of ingress to Srinagar.(3/5)
