Citation:

On 6 September 1965, Havildar Indra Bahadur Gurung was given the task of clearing two machine gun posts, which were obstructing the advance of a platoon near Dera Baba Nanak. Havildar Gurung moved forward with two of his men and reached the first machine gun post. He then went on alone and lobbed a grenade into the post and silenced the machine guns. As he advanced further to the gun post, he was hit by a burst and seriously wounded. Despite his wounds, he jumped into the post and killed the gunners. He was killed in this action but his platoon captured the objective. 

Havildar Indra Bahadur Gurung displayed indomitable courage, determination and devotion to duty in the best traditions of the army.
