Galwan Braves - Sepoy Gurtej Singh (Ghatak):
On the evening of 15 June the fierce ‘Ghataks’ and the Sikh gunners of Medium Arty regiment rushed into the fight with very little time to plan and prepare 1/n
2/n
they were only carrying their customary kirpan, sticks, rods and sharp knives. Fellow fighters recall Gurtej being attacked by four Chinese soldiers. He shouted, Bole So Nihal, Sat Sri Akal and swung round two of them and as two others tried
3/n
to pin him down, he dragged all four of them towards the cliff. All 4 Chinese were flung to death but Gurtej lost his balance and also slipped, but was stuck in a boulder, hence avoiding a free fall. Badly injured in the neck and head, Gurtej rewrapped his turban
4/n
and in a inhuman effort pulled himself back into the fighting. Gurtej slashed some Chinese with his kirpan before he could snatch a sharp weapon from a Chinese soldier. Not only that one but 7 other Chinese soldiers were also killed at the hands of Gurtej before one stabbed
End:
him from behind. Even as he went down, he slashed his killer with his kirpan
