Taking to her Instagram handle, ‘Sajini Shinde Ka Viral Video’ actress shared glimpses from the event and penned a heartfelt note. She wrote “On Papa’s 72nd Birth Anniversary today, Mama, my sister and I inaugurated a memorial in his name honouring not only his but 12 other gallant soldiers’ supreme sacrifice for the nation all hailing from Sri Ganganagar, Rajasthan. A dream my family and I dreamt of 30 years ago since we lost him in Jammu and Kashmir in 1994, finally came true.
My sincerest gratitude for the relentless efforts and support from the civil administration in close co-ordination with the local army personnel stationed here. Papa was a son of the soil, born to a farmers’ family in Mohanpura village. He led, lived and died by example, fearless and fierce till his last breath. Words fail me today to express the pride I feel standing on this soil, in his birthplace witnessing immortalising his name and life story to inspire present day and future generations.
