People often think that volunteering is something that is done in free time. I beg to differ. Volunteering is not a time-pass to be done in free time. Volunteering is not something that should be done to feel good. Volunteering is a sense of duty, a sense of resposibility towards your motherland, towards society. Volunteering, in fact is a way to pay back your debt.
This is for Sankalp Volunteers . .
Try to answer that question in detail..
If death strikes before I prove my blood,
I swear to God, I’ll kill death!

Kargil war was fought between India and Pakistan between May and July 1999. Main cause of war was the infiltration of Pakistani troops and militants in the Kargil, Dras and other parts of Indian border. This war was the only instance of a direct armed confrontation between two nuclear states. Indian response to this infiltration was termed Operation Vijay.
Having missed the industrial revolution, we have tried hard to catch up with the new-age industries, mainly Information Technology and Biotechnology. While the growth of IT in India is universally known, it is noteworthy that Indian pharmaceutical industry ranks third in the world in terms of volume and fourteenth in terms of value. Well, lesser known is the fact, that until recently, there existed a river in Hyderabad where a single dip could make you immune to most diseases - and a second dip could have killed you.
On September 2, 2010, then 35-year-old Shrestha, a retired Gurkha soldier in the Indian army, was on his way to Nepal after retiring from his Gurkha soldier military service whilst 15-40 armed robbers attacked the train in which he was travelling. The group robbed the passengers of their portable valuables (like money, jewellery, cellular phones and laptops). He intervened using his Khukuri knife when the robbers tried to steal the jewelry of a mother and her 8-year-old daughter and attempted to rape an 18 year-old girl who pleaded for his help.

Major Ramaswamy Parameswaran, was born on 13 September 1946, in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. He was granted Short Service Commission in the Mahar Regiment on 16 January 1972.
Under the Indo-Sri Lanka Agreement many Indian Army units were dispatched to Sri Lanka to maintain law and order there. The Mahar Regiment, Major Parameswaran's unit, was also sent to Sri Lanka to participate in Operation Pawan. On 25 November 1987, Major Parameswaran was returning with his column from a search operation late in the night. Suddenly, his column was ambushed by a group of militants.
Naib Subedar Bana Singh was born on 3rd Feb 1949, at Kadyal in Jammu and Kashmir. He joined Indian army in 1969 and was enrolled in Jammu and Kashmir Light Infantry.
During June 1987, it was found that a large number of Pakistani infiltrators have intruded the Siachen glacier. Pakistan post was set at 6500 meters, highest post of the glacier. Due to this height, the post was almost impregnable with ice walls up to 450 meters high on both sides. Also Pakistan could easily monitor any Indian movement in the entire glacier.
I had to wait for 2 hours for my train at the Howrah railway station. I started looking around for a place to sit and wait. Like most Indian stations, the search to find the place was tough. As I spotted a seat somewhere in the middle of humanity I rushed before someone else made better of the opportunity. While elbowing my way through the usual Kolkata style - laid back crowd, I suddenly found a man scouting right in the middle of the passage. Carefully I manoeuvred my luggage around him and claimed my prize.. the edge of an overcrowded bench.
