Bawa Bhalla also remembers the days when both of you ‘suffered’ under an incompetent Officer Commanding.
May the Lord bless his soul, and may he rest in peace.

Amar Bhalla is known for his ability to be brief. He knows that ‘brevity is the soul of wit’

In addition to being ‘fortunate’ I think you are wise and sagacious. A man is known by the company he keeps, and the Chandele family is, known to have chosen the right friends!

God bless you and Promilla.
Surjit & Surinder

Felicitations to father, son, wife & mother.
Extremely well narrated.
Promilla and I are extremely fortunate to know both the families, Gen Surjit’s and Gen Bhalla’s.
(Did’nt know you were course mates!)
Warm regards

From the photographs it is dificult to differentiate between the father and the son.

This must be unique !

Thanks for sharing.
