National news reports the death of a 29 year old Bombay born and bred army officer and three of his soldiers who died in a firefight with Pakistani insurgents in Kashmir.
The major whose family is from the Konkan, was educated in Holy Cross school in Mira-Bhayandar a suburb of Bombay run by Catholic Missionaries. Hope PM Modi while condoling his death also has a kind word for those who educated this young man and instilled in him devotion to duty and country. India is not just one big Hindu parivar. Roland.
