LET US SALUTE THE HEROES OF 26/11

Tukaram Omble
Tukaram Omble
When we clap for cine heroes who jumps 100 meters from ground, what we are going to do for this man who captured Ajmal Kasab (the lone captured terrorist).

He fought with Ajmal Kasab who had AK 47 in his hand. It is to be noted that Omble doesn’t have even a single weapon. He held Kasab’s gun which saved his colleague’s life. It also gave room for his colleagues to arrest him.

When he saw Kasab he charged towards him (although he was unarmed and Kasab was with AK47). Kasab started firing at him, still he stood like a shield.

"When we saw that Omble was not letting go of the terrorist's gun, we knew we could not let his sacrifice go in vain. He held on and we completed his unfinished task," his colleague Sanjay Govilkar said.

(When I just completed writing the above line I just stood up for a moment a saluted him, it is just my reflexes)

He lived for our nation and died for our nation.

Indian government honored him with the Ashoka Chakra on 26 January 2009. It is the highest peacetime gallantry award one can receive.
