I have no words about the incident in handwara. Major Anuj Sood was married to a very dear friend. It’s devastating to know about the details.
Pray for strength to the family. 🙏 🇮🇳 #RIPBravehearts

India remains only because some of her sons choose to face bullets, bombs & death so that we live on!
NEVER FORGET! #Handwara#IndianArmy
