Gaurav Sawant Shares Anecdotes Of Captain Vikram Batra & Bravado | India's Most Fearless

India Today Senior Executive Editor Shiv Aroor, Managing Editor Gaurav Sawant and Defence and Military Affairs journalist and author Rahul Singh shared not just their experiences on the battleground while reporting from some precarious situations, but they also talked about the soldiers and officers, their stories of bravado and also the families who form an important support system in their lives. The journalists were speaking at Sahitya AajTak in a session titled India's Most Fearless. Talking about Captain Vikram Batra and his bravado, Gaurav Sawant said, “5140 was the peak that Captain Vikram Batra had won and this was one of the initial victories in Kargil and a very difficult one. The entire country knew about the Captain’s slogan – ye dil mange more. In that operation, because they were exposed to the harsh weather since they had given up their woollens just to scale the mountains, Captain Batra had a fever. He was supposed to go to RNR (rest and recuperation) but he heard on the wireless that the two teams that had gone for .4875 (which later came to be known as Batra Top) couldn’t reach the top. The Pakistan army had their guns so effectively deployed that every advance was being pushed back and casualties were happening. So, this is the time he volunteered. General YK Joshi kept telling him ‘you need to rest’, but he said ‘I am the only one who can do it’. He went up despite the fever and he actually did what he said. “ #shivaroor #gauravsawant #rahulkanwal #sahityaaajtak Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
