On 17 September 1965,2nd Lieutenant Ravinder Singh Bedi was ordered to move with his troops through the built-up area of village Jhuggian in the Lahore Sector in Pakistan and engage enemy bunkers, recoilless guns and tanks in Dograi. His troop was able to destroy a number of enemy vehicles from a position west of Jhuggian; which was within the enemy fire range. Though his tank was hit by fire from a recoilless gun and he was seriously wounded, 2nd Lieutenant Bedi continued to lead his troop and ultimately succeeded in knocking out the enemy's recoilless gun. He did not abandon his tank until it was on fire and the ammunition started exploding.

The leadership and courage displayed by 2nd Lieutenant Bedi were a source of inspiration to his men and were in the highest traditions of the Indian Army
