On Independence Day, the Uttar Bharatiya Sangh honoured the families of four soldiers who died serving the nation. The organisation presented Rs 1 lakh and a ceremonial felicitation to each family at its Mumbai programme, led by president Santosh RN Singh.
The families of Naik Sunil Kashiram Nakhate, Lance Naik Ratnakar Ramji Kalambe, Naik Manik Bhimrao Damdame and Sepoy Eknath Bhiku Mane were recognised. Nakhate died in Operation Rakshak in Kupwara in 2004; Kalambe and Damdame also fell in Operation Rakshak in 2001; Mane was killed in an ambush in Nagaland in 1982.
A family member said the gesture reminded them that the sacrifice is still remembered years later. Singh said no financial support can fill the void, but society must remember the heroes and support their families.
