We are in the process of gathering additional information about this fallen soldier and are putting painstaking efforts in scouring the data available in public domain, towards that end. You may appreciate that it is a humongous task to curate the information about all the martyrs since 1947 and the endeavor demands huge amount of time and resources. Thus, we need the support of the martyr’s family members, former Unit or Formation colleagues, other comrades and friends in this regard. Please share any information about this soldier, if you have, by virtue of your association with him to make his profile comprehensive and inspirational. The information may be in the form of text, photographs or video clips and may be sent as and when available, since the information is dynamically updated.

 

We would immensely appreciate your valuable assistance in sharing your knowledge about the inspirational journey of this spirited soldier. We look forward to your help in our mission of spreading awareness about the sacrifices of the fallen heroes of our Armed Forces, who gave it all for our brighter tomorrow.

    This is my mother’s first cousin. I understand he graduated from Sainik School Amarvathi Nagar, TIruppur District, Tamil Nadu. The rolling shield for the best outgoing student is said to be in His Honour. His father’s name is Ganapathi Subaramania Shastrigal, who is the brother of my maternal grandfather, Sri Ramachandran Sastrigal. Lt G S Vaidynathan’s sister’s son , N Krishnan, retired as General Manager from Indian Overseas Bank Chennai and is settled in Chennai. His brother G S Rajagopal (former cricketer who represented All India State Bank team] retired as Chief Manager, State Bank of India and is settled in Chennai. I have not seen him since I was just 5 years old when he attained martyrdom. My name is Sitaraman and am a Chartered Accountant. Will get contact details later.
