Earlier this morning, Lieutenant General Pratik Sharma visited Kishtwar to review the counter terrorism grid and operational preparedness. The Army Commander, while interacting with the ground Commanders and the ever committed troops, commended them for their unwavering resolve in the ongoing efforts, the Indian Army said.
The counter terrorism Operation Trashi-I began on January 18 in the Union Territory.
On January 19, army officers paid last tributes to Havildar Gajendra Singh, who laid down his life in the line of duty during a counter-terrorism operation in the Singhpora area of Chatroo in Kishtwar district. Havildar Gajendra Singh, a Special Forces soldier, was killed “while gallantly executing a counter-terror operation” as part of the ongoing Operation Trashi-I on the intervening night of January 18 and 19.
In a post on X, the White Knight Corps said, “The #GOC, White Knight Corps and all ranks pay solemn tribute to Havildar Gajendra Singh of the Special Forces, who made the supreme sacrifice while gallantly executing a Counter Terrorism operation in the Singpura area during the ongoing Operation TRASHI-I on the intervening night of 18-19 Jan 2026.”
“We honour his indomitable courage, valour and selfless devotion to duty and stand firmly with the bereaved family in this hour of profound grief,” the post further read. (ANI)
