During 1999, Sepoy Bhika’s unit 4 Jat battalion was deployed in the Kargil sector of J&K. On 15th May 1999 Captain Saurabh Kalia was tasked to lead a patrol to the Bajrang post. Sepoy Bhika along with Captain Saurabh Kalia and four other soldiers – Sepoys Arjun Ram Baswana, Bhanwar Lal Bagaria, Moola Ram, and Naresh Singh set off for the Bajrang post as planned. After a continuous crossfire with Pakistan armed forces from across the LOC, Captain Saurabh Kalia and his troops ran out of ammunition. They reported this matter to the base camp and called for reinforcements. However, before the troops could arrive, they were surrounded by a platoon of Pakistani rangers and captured alive. Captain Saurabh Kalia, Sepoy Bhika, and other soldiers were in captivity from 15th May 1999 – 7th June 1999 for about twenty-two days and subjected to torture as evident from injuries to their bodies when they were handed over by the Pakistani Army on 9th June 1999. The postmortem examination revealed that the Pakistani forces had tortured their prisoners in gross violation of the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners of war.     

The brave soldier is survived by his wife and son.
