Stories of the "Unsung" warriors

The society always remembers the martyr who made the supreme sacrife and at times if the deceased was fortunate enough due to prevailing circumstances, he /she may get the spot light of media but in majority of cases of central armed forces it never happens. The real war begins after the death of the bread winner and the dependents face the apathy of the society.

“When bad men combine, good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle”
