It is very sad news that 6 assam soldiers have lost their lifes fighting for the nation leaving their families nowhere . It seems that after the Dantewada incident central Govt, has deployed strengths in Naxal areas mobilising troops maximum from North East States. It is feared that more casualties to our men may result in near future.

It is really a sad news relating to the demise of assam soldiers who lost their precious lives fighting for the nation. The soldiers are the real patriots who lead a sacrificed life. We the citizens should really bow down before such warriors who die for the motherland for the cost of the country
