Veteran India, a group of all India ex-servicemen, will hold a two-day “national convention and seminar on Nationalism and Patriotism” in New Delhi on April 14 and 15. The organisers said the highlight will be all the three living recipients of India’s highest military award, the Param Vir Chakra, will attend the convention. They are Subedar Yogendra Singh Yadav, Captain Bana Singh and rifleman Sanjay Kumar. Several other gallantry award winners and war veterans will also be present at the convention. It is seldom that the government’s Press Information Bureau spreads the word about events that are non-government, but an exception was made in this case. The convention is being held in the backdrop of India-Pakistan tensions over Islamabad’s decision to hang retired Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav.
