Begusarai: Pall of Gloom has come down at the Pipra Colony of Lieutenant Rishi Kumar (23) residence after he was killed in a boom of land mines in Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday.
The 23-year-old army officer, along with Jawan, died during the patrol of the dominance of the region in the Naoshera sector along the control line.
The Rishi family initially belonged to the adjacent LakhiSarai district.
However, they settled on the beginning of the past year when his grandfather used to work with the plane Baruni here.
Rishi has joined the army only a year ago after completing training at the Indian Military Academy, Dehradun.
His father, Rajiv Ranjan Singh, said the news of his son’s death was delivered to the family by the Army headquarters on Saturday night.
“I was silent because he lost it,” he said.
The relatives who visited his house on Sunday said Rishi was a bright student and was proud to be part of the troops.
His mother could not be destroyed since the news broke out.
Rishi is the only son of his parents.
According to family members, his older sister was married and the younger brother’s marriage was scheduled to be suggested on November 29.
Rishi told family members that he would come a week before the ceremony.
The remnants of mortal officers are expected to arrive in the Sunday night of Patna Airport where the Union Minister and Begusarai MP Giriraj Singh will accept it and pay his last respect.
