Late second Lt. Arun Khetrapal(PVC) was 21 years old when he passed out from IMA and was commissioned into the 17 Poona Horse of the Indian Army. Just 6 months of his joining 1971 Indo-Pak war broke out. He was undergoing the Young Officers’ Course at Ahmednagar at that time.
He was recalled from the course &soon joined his unit to take part in the famous“Battle of Basantar”in the Shakargarh sector.
On 16 December that year,he had rushed to the aid of his fellow soldiers,decimating several Patton tanks of Pakistan Army in his lone Centurion Mk7 tank.

When his tank chassis got hit he was grievously wounded. he was ordered to abandon his tank, but realising that the enemy was still pressing forward, he stuck to his position firing till the very end. He single handedly destroyed 7 Pakistani tanks before attaining martyrdom.
For his valor he was awarded Paramvir Chakra. When Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal attained martyrdom on the battlefield of Basantar in the 1971 Indo-Pak war, he had passed into legend.
You should tell these stories to the next generation. Younger generation should know what a 21 year old boy can do at that age.
And the shameful Bollywood says that Aryan Khan is just a kid at 24 years of age
