On a day when the rest of the world is celebrating Valentine's Day, a daughter's love for her martyred father has been going viral on social media. Over two years after the death of Major Askshay Girish in a terror attack in Jammu & Kashmir's Nagrota in 2016, his mother Meghna Girsih shared a video of his daughter Naina remembering her father and repeating the meaning of "army" that he had explained to her.

When Major Girish, a resident of Bangalore, was killed, Naina was two-and-a-half-years old. According to the caption posted along with the video, the footage was shot a year after her father's death. In the footage, little Naina can be seen telling everyone the meaning of "Army".

“Army is to make us love. Army is to fight with bad uncles. Army is to help us not get afraid. Army is some who does Jai Hind to everyone,” Naina can be heard saying.

Naina's grandmother Mrs Girish wrote that "this random video captures innocence and faith. Love is an emotion. Her papa's love for the Army and Countrymen also stays within her".

The adorable and heartbreaking video has garnered over 10,000 likes on Twitter.

A swelling feeling down in my heart !
God bless you all, Ma’m ...

I cried a little. I am a father of a 3 years old myself and I can empathize. May Naina achieve best in her life.

Thanks for sharing madam. Naina in her own inimitable style articulated n reflected, d real essence of d word "ARMY". She is true incarnation of her father believes n a prodigy daughter of a deferential n talismanic soul who achieved martyrdom in line of duty. Regards

Dear Ma’am, She’s an exact replica of Akshay Sir, both in appearance and values. What a gem you’ve got. Sir must be proud and so are we.
May Lord Shiva bless and protect her.
