Indian Army cares for its brave hearts

<span style="color: #222222;">We don’t know them all, but, we owe them all, 'Lest we forget'. Brave heart Late Sub Gandhi Ram Rajbongshi of Assam Regiment hailing from Mangaldoi in Darrang District lost his life while serving the nation along the Northern Borders on 18 Dec 2000, leaving behind his wife Mrs Pabitri Rajbongshi along with a 15 years old daughter and a 01 year old son. The complete responsibility of upbringing the family was now onto the shoulders of Veer Nari Mrs Pabitri Rajbongshi who took on this responsibility as a challenge and acted as an iron lady upholding the tag of a VEER NARI.&nbsp;</span><br />” <br />” <span style="color: #222222;">She single handedly raised both her children and helped them pursue their education in the best of schools and colleges possible. Subsequently, in the year &nbsp;2011, her elder daughter Geetanjali got married while her son was still undergoing schooling. In 2018, again a tragedy struck this brave lady of Assam when her son met with a bike accident on 13 Jun 2018.<br />” <br />” The injuries sustained by her son Gagan Rajbongshi were severe and he was hospitalized for over a month for undergoing various minor operations and also facial&nbsp;re-constructive surgery. The total cost of his treatment was around Rs 12 lakh. The Veer Nari, as strong as ever again took over the responsibility of the family and helped her son by providing him the best medical treatment possible. The family wanted to claim the medical expenditure from the government &nbsp;but they were unable to receive any financial help &nbsp;as they were not registered and availing the ECHS facility.<br />” <br />” At this time of need the Indian Army rose to the occasion, in accordance with its commitment to ensuring welfare and social security of Veterans and Veer Naris, the local Indian Army unit ensured release of one time grant of Rs 5 Lacs from Army Central Welfare Fund (ACWF) to help and support the Veer Nari. This reflects the bond which still exists within the organization, always looking after the ones who have made the ultimate sacrifice for this nation and never ever forgets their sacrifice.</span><br />” &nbsp;
