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.

2024 at 12:42 amMaj JC Verma was my Chacha . My father was his elder brother. Maj Verma studied in Oak Grove School, Jharipani, Mussoorie. Maj Verma was exceptionally brave. With all the accounts we have of his unit members, I believe he was grievously wounded, and taken prisoner of war. He had shaved his head before battle, and there was a link that an Indian major was pow, whose head was shaved. After that we have no news. His elder daughter, my cousin lives in Lucknow. I am sorry to say, not enough efforts were made to get our missing POWs back. He must have died in Pak prison by now.
