ITANAGAR, Jun 15: Governor Brig. (Dr) B. D. Mishra (Retd.) today paid homage to the brave soldiers of the country who made supreme sacrifice while defending the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the nation in Galwan Valley against Chinese intrusion on June 15 last year.
Recalling the supreme sacrifice of the soldiers of the 16th Battalion of Bihar Regiment led by Commanding Officer Col. B Santosh Babu, the Governor said that the sacrifice has not gone in vain.
