On the night of 14 November 1948 at Pindras, Jemadar Lal Singh was in command of the leading platoon of the company that attacked the Brown Hill feature. When within 20 yards of the enemy, he came under heavy fire. Showing great presence of mind, he crawled forward to the leading section under incessant fire and ordered them to dig in. He then crawled to the other sections and though hit seven times he went on giving directions and cheering them up. 

Although profusely bleeding, he by his personal example, cool courage, guts and stamina enabled the platoon to stick to the position. At dawn, when the other two platoons advanced for the attack, he put himself with the first section and charged the enemy position killing six of them and capturing the feature.

By daring dash and skilful leadership, this JCO achieved an outstanding result.
