MEANING OF LOVE

What is love? This is one of the most difficult questions with no specific answer. I asked this question to different people of different age group to know meticulous meaning of love. A five year old boy described love as the sentiments he had for his mother. I asked a teenage girl and she described it as the crush she had for her school captain. A college student described the love as feelings for the hottest girl of the class and a 30 year old woman described love as the understanding she had with her partner. None of the answers matched with each other.



So what is love? I decided to look for the answer on internet and found a poem written by Mrs Indu Mukund. This poem touched my heart, made me emotional and till now I have read eleven times. The poem describes her love for her late husband. She is wife of Major Mukund Varadarajan, Ashok Chakra (Posthumous). As I read the name of the army officer, it reminded me of the news which I had read and seen in magazine and television respectively. The officer led from front in counter terrorism operation in Kashmir valley and attained martyrdom. For his leadership and courage, he was awarded the highest peace time gallantry award ‘Ashok Chakra’. I still remember Mrs Indu Mukund receiving the Ashok Chakra on behalf of her martyred husband.



So what is love? Love is care, sacrifice, loyalty, generosity, understanding, dedication and patience. Love cannot be described in one word, it is a complete literature. Her love for her husband is immortal which cannot be diluted with time. I am sharing a snapshot of the poem written by Mrs Indu Mukund wife of Late Major Mukund Varadarajan, Ashok Chakra.

The Battle of Longewala

After drifting for approximately thousand kilometers from Alwar, I have reached Longewala. This place romanticizes me allot. The battle of Longewala a legend in itself. It is located at 120 kms from city of Jaisalmer. Only way to reach this place is boulevard and if you are tourist then you have to hire a cab. Longewala is prevalent because of the illustrious skirmish tussled between India and Pakistan in 1971. The clash of Longewala is all about how hundred odd men clogged and overwhelmed approximately 2000 Pakistani legionnaires. This battle was all about the audacity, impetus, chauvinism and drive to prizefight exhibited by those eighty Indian warriors. This scuffle is one of my favorite scuffles, and whenever I come to this place, my mind start envisaging how horde of men repudiated the destiny. During the Indo-Pak war of 1971, A-Coy of 23 Punjab had taken up the defences at Longewala. The A-Coy company commander was Major Kuldeep Singh Chandpuri later on emer...
