Nalanda: Effective leadership is not about preaching sermons or being followed. Effective leadership, however, is defined by results and not attributes. Leadership was manifested by Cadet Amit Raj on December 3, 2020, when he left his residence at village Pasure in Nalanda district, located almost 100 km from the state capital, Patna. It was a routine morning walk.
Barely 100 metres from his home, he heard Rupali, 13, crying for help after things went unmanageable while she was preparing her morning tea. What started with minor leakage of an LPG cylinder resulted into an uncontrolled fire that eventually made Amit its casualty. Even the Indian Army condoled his demise on its official Twitter handle.
