Punjab boy who served milk,lassi to jawans during Op Sindoor honoured by Army Sarwan Singh Interview
In the dusty and heat-soaked fields of Punjab's Tara Wali village near the India-Pakistan border, hundreds of villagers witnessed Operation Sindoor - one of the country's largest military mobilisations in recent times - unfold in front of their eyes. Soldiers lined up the village's open fields, their boots tracing fresh lines in the soil, preparing for the unknown. At the heart of this tense build-up stood a 10-year-old boy, Shravan Singh. No uniform. No weapons. But with courage that knew no measure. The boy who dreams of being an Indian Army soldier when he grows up, witnessed the war-like situation in his village in Ferozepur district. But, despite a tender age and a tough situation at the borders, nothing deterred him. Shravan Singh, the son of local farmer Sona Singh, didn't just watch from the sidelines. He stepped in. Armed with nothing but devotion and two small hands, he brought water, milk, lassi and even ice to the jawans camped on his family's farmland. In the scorching heat, while fear gripped many, Shravan Singh ran daily to the troops, reminding them they were never alone.
