Citation:

During an assault by a battalion of the Maratha Light Infantry, supported by armour, an enemy rocket launcher posed a threat to the tanks assaulting with the infantry. Realising the danger to our tanks, Sepoy Pandurang Salunkhe, at great risk to his life, charged towards the rocket launcher, jumped on the enemy and physically snatched away the rocket launcher even though he received a burst of stengun fire at pointblank range. In this action, Sepoy Salunkhe displayed indomitable courage and determination of a very high order.
