The year was 1947-48, and the India-Pakistan war was raging. In the snow-covered peaks of Kashmir, the enemy had made significant inroads. The Indian Army's position in the Naushera sector was critical, and the enemy was planning to capture it. Naik Yadunath Singh was stationed here with his small unit of soldiers.

On the morning of 6th February 1948, the enemy launched a sudden and heavy assault. Their force numbered around five hundred, while Yadunath Singh had only ten soldiers with him. Despite being heavily outnumbered, Yadunath Singh inspired his men to stand firm and hold their ground.

He fired relentlessly with his rifle, successfully halting the enemy's initial attack. However, the enemy regrouped and launched a second, even more powerful assault. Yadunath Singh, showing exemplary courage, evacuated his injured comrades to safety and single-handedly defended the post.

Even after exhausting his ammunition, he refused to back down. With a bayonet in hand, he charged at the enemy, killing several before succumbing to their bullets. His heroic sacrifice ensured that Naushera remained under Indian control.

For his unparalleled bravery and ultimate sacrifice, Naik Yadunath Singh was posthumously awarded the "Param Vir Chakra," India's highest military honor. His courage continues to inspire generations of the Indian Army.

"Salute to such brave sons of the soil. Jai Hind."
