A Salute to Maj Sandeep Unnikrishnan

There are few who get to live a life of honour and very few who get an Honoured departure. Born on March 15, 1977, Maj Sandeep was felled by a terrorist's bullet during a flushing-out operation at the Hotel Taj. Entrusted with the task of evacuating hostages, Major Sandeep sacrificed his life while trying to shield one of the injured soldiers from terrorists attack.
He is a true patriot and and a brave hero and proved that he is the son of soil, one who fought for his motherland and saved her grace at the cost of his life.
I salute the brave officers and men who fought terror in Mumbai. Thanks to them, the country was safe during the hour of crisis. More than our politicians who fight terror by issuing statements, we need men like them who saved Mumbai.
After all "Action speaks louder than words."
