In a special report on Vijay Diwas, a retired army officer shares personal memories of 2nd Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, the Param Vir Chakra awardee of the 1971 Indo-Pak War. The veteran, who served in the Battle of Basantar, recalls interactions with Khetarpal just days before the latter’s martyrdom. The speaker describes Khetarpal as a ‘cool, collected, calm guy’ and recounts a specific incident where Khetarpal used his tank to pull the veteran’s stuck vehicle out of a river. The report highlights the valour of the Indian Army, the significance of the victory, and the tributes paid to the martyrs at Chandimandir. The veteran also mentions their time together in the military academy, describing Khetarpal as a ‘next room neighbor’ and a close friend.
