Honorary Lt Madan Lal Choudhary, 50, who attained martyrdom in the attack, displayed extraordinary courage to save his family members and relatives, who had come to his quarter in the Military Station Sunjuwan, for shopping for wedding of a relative.
Sources said Choudhary stood in front of the door of his quarter and confined his family members and relatives inside the quarter.
While Choudhary attained martyrdom, his daughter Neha sustained injuries. All other family members and relatives were safe.
“But for the bravery displayed by the martyr, number of the casualties of his family members and relatives could have been higher,” sources said.
Choudhary hailed from village Bakrak, Khanpur in Hiranagar tehsil of Kathua district.
