General Officer Commanding (GoC), White Knight Corps, Lieutenant General PK Mishra and other officers on Friday paid tribute to Subedar Major Pawan Kumar, who was killed during Operation Sindoor and expressed solidarity with his bereaved family.

Kumar, who was killed in shelling by Pakistan in Poonch district, was cremated with full state honours at his native village in Himachal Pradesh's Kangra on Sunday.

"GoC and all ranks of White Knight Corps salute the unwavering courage of braveheart Subedar Major Pawan Kumar, who made the supreme sacrifice during Operation Sindoor," White Knight Corps said in a post on X.

His valour and dedication to duty will always be remembered, it said, adding, "We continue to stand with the bereaved family in their hour of grief." PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
