Chennai: December 10, 1971.
S Ramsagar, a senior pilot with the Navy who flew the anti-submarine plane, had tired rockets targeting warships that tried to evacuate Pakistani soldiers near Pakistan East Beach.
So he flies low, almost surface sea, to lower deep allegations and come under fire.
Likewise, it was a pitched battle on the ground led by Major Krishnaswami against armored attacks that prevent Pakistan reach the arms and ammunition to Dhaka.
Two war veterans from the city – Rear Admiral Ramagar and Colonel Krishnaswami – who played an important role in the surrender of Pakistani troops recalling their experience to mark Swarnim Vijay Varsh, commemorating India’s victory over Pakistan.
“The seven bullets pierced through the fuselage and left, someone was close to my thigh.
But we dropped allegations and flew back to the aircraft carrier just to fly back twice that night and the next morning to thwart an attempt to evacuate around 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers using merchants.
“It was also the night when the Vikrant Ins crew saw a glimpse of the battle at close range for the first time during the 1971 war.” I lost all the systems of hydraulic and communication but could fly.
I can’t fly to India because no one knows the naval plane.
I don’t Can go to Burma because I will be captured.
So I flew to the Vikrant Ins, which is around 90 to 100 miles, using a small magnetic compass.
“Three bombing attacks in the range of night by RamsaGar who flew on his submarine anti-ship aircraft from Ins Vikrant blocked efforts by Pakistan to use six merchant vessels to evacuate troops.
On the night of December 13-14, C company under the leadership of Krishnaswami formed the road barrier and the convoy of Pakistani forces and ammunition from the Joydebpur factory was stored and ambushed the next morning.
The battle raged until 3pm, where Pakistani troops launched three attacks using their armored tanks to solve Cordon.
Krishnaswami moved from a ditch to the trench and advised his troops to defeat the attack using the power of fire and determination.
Around 4pm, Pakistani troops surrendered.
The courage of war veterans, who was awarded Chakra Veer, functions as an inspiration for children today.
