Delhi cop Mohan Chand Sharma
January 26, 2009
Delhi Police Inspector Mohan Chand Sharma, an encounter specialist, got the Ashok Chakra for leading an anti-terror operation at Batla House in the national capital in September last year.
On September 19 last, Sharma received specific information that a suspected person wanted in connection with the serial bomb blasts in Delhi was hiding in a flat in Batla House area of Jamia Nagar.
Leading a seven-member team, he quickly reached the identified flat and as soon as he entered the flat, he received the first burst of fire from the terrorists holed up inside.
Undaunted, he returned the fire and in the ensuing exchange of fire, two terrorists were killed and one captured, but Sharma succumbed to injuries later.
