Constable Gurbachan Singh served with the Jammu and Kashmir Police and made the supreme sacrifice on 27 October 2001 at Katli, Billawar, in Kathua district, while fighting terrorists.
His name is remembered alongside DySP Davinder Kumar Sharma, popularly known as Jattu, who also made the supreme sacrifice on the same date. Their sacrifice remains part of the history of police personnel who carried out their duties amid serious security challenges in Jammu and Kashmir.
The risks faced by police personnel during this period demanded courage, discipline and a strong sense of responsibility. Constables and officers alike continued to serve communities and fulfil their duties despite the dangers. Gurbachan Singh's sacrifice stands as a reminder of the personal cost borne by those who serve in uniform.
His memory has continued to be honoured through commemorative gatherings in Jammu, where police personnel, colleagues and members of the public have paid tribute to those who made the supreme sacrifice. These tributes preserve the memory of the fallen and recognise their place in the history of the force.
The Honour Post pays tribute to Constable Gurbachan Singh of the Jammu and Kashmir Police, who made the supreme sacrifice on 27 October 2001 at Katli, Billawar, Kathua. His service and sacrifice deserve to be remembered with dignity.
