The story of India’s soldiers missing in action is an ongoing tale, lingering from the wars with Pakistan. These brave men disappeared in enemy territory while undertaking daring missions during the 1965 and 1971 Indo-Pak conflicts. Unfortunately, the nation seems to have forgotten them, and while successive governments make token acknowledgments of their missing status, their fate remains largely unaddressed.
Throughout the past five decades, there have been scattered reports offering fragments of information, but this book presents the first comprehensive account of their saga. The result of extensive research, it uncovers startling revelations that shed new light on this subject. In the midst of much hearsay and dismissive commentary, this book seeks to find answers to the haunting question: “What happened to these men?”
Moreover, it aims to spark a debate on the exploitation of soldiers by governments, using them as pawns while paying only lip service to their cause. Through this compelling narrative, the book highlights the plight of these forgotten heroes and seeks to give them the recognition and closure they deserve.
