Last rites of jawan killed in J&K performed in Assam village

Guwahati, Nov 16 (UNI) The last rites of Hardhan Chandra Roy, army havildar who was killed in action in Jammu and Kashmir, were performed at his native village of Futkibari in Dhubri district of Assam today.
The infant son of the martyred jawan lit the pyre from the lap of a family member as personnel of army and locals joined in bidding last adieu to Roy.
Roy, the only earning member of his extended family, is survived by his parents, wife, sisters and a one-and-half-year-old son.
The mortal remains of the jawan, who had embraced martyrdom in the Uri sector in Jammu and Kashmir along the Indo-Pakistan border due to the heavy shelling by Pakistani army across LOC, had reached Guwahati last evening and kept at the Army Base Hospital here, where Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal paid his last respects.
Mr Sonowal had also informed that the government of Assam would provide financial assistance of Rs 20 lakh to the next of kin of the martyr in honour of his supreme sacrifice.
