Head Constable Ajit Singh served with the 38th Battalion of the Central Reserve Police Force. Born on 25 April 1951 in Haryana, he dedicated his service to the nation as a member of India's central armed police force.
On 22 October 1996, a CRPF patrol deployed in Assam was crossing a jungle when insurgents launched an attack. The personnel immediately took cover behind trees and retaliated, engaging the attackers in a fierce encounter.
Head Constable Ajit Singh was at the front of the patrol and fought bravely during the confrontation. He sustained severe injuries but continued firing at the insurgents, helping force them to flee. His determination under fire reflected his commitment to duty even in the face of grave danger.
Despite his courage and efforts during the encounter, Ajit Singh later succumbed to his injuries and made the supreme sacrifice on 22 October 1996. His story stands as a tribute to the courage and selflessness of CRPF personnel who serve in difficult operational environments.
The Honour Post remembers Head Constable Ajit Singh with respect and gratitude. His service and sacrifice remain a reminder of the risks undertaken by those who protect the nation and confront threats to its security.
