Pick surrender over death: J&K Police tells terrorist amid Pampore encounter [watch]
Development has been crucial, yet a debatable reality in India. As there are two sides of the coin, developments, as we see around us, don t really show the whole picture. Take J&K s Badhal village in Rajauri district for instance, which is located 27 km east from district headquarters, yet lacks decent roadway.
The lack of basic facility such as roads to a J&K village was repeatedly brought to the attention of responsible offices in the district, but those pleas fell on deaf ears. What s shocking is the fact that the person fighting for the basic facility to his village is a 95-year-old Subedar and Honorary Lieutenant (retd.) and a Vir Chakra awardee for his valour in 1947-48 Indo-Pakistan War – Santan Singh.
