Mr. N J S Sekhon - Param Veer Chakra

I was motivated by hearing Mr. Nirmal Jit Singh Sekhon. He was posthumously awarded the Param Vir Chakra, India's highest military decoration during war time, in recognition of his lone defence of Srinagar Air Base against a Pakistan Air Force (PAF) air raid during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. He is the only member of the Indian Air Force to be honoured with the Param Veer Chakra award. Statue of Param Vir Flying Officer Nirmal Jit Singh Sekhon and his aircraft is at district court of Ludhiana. Postal stamp was released by the government of India to appreciate his sacrifice and service.
