On 3 November 1962, Subedar Jagandhoj Limbu was detailed to a patrol to a position in NEFA to bring down observed artillery fire on the enemy positions and to gain the maximum information regarding the concentration of the enemy. The patrol went over very difficult terrain at a height of over 14,000-ft. It spent two nights behind enemy positions and collected valuable information. On the return journey it was ambushed by a numerically superior Chinese force. In the initial encounter Subedar Limbu was wounded in the neck by enemy fire. In spite of his wound and in utter disregard of his personal safety he rallied his small force and assaulted the enemy four times, but was driven back each time. Despite the heavy odds Subedar Limbu successfully fought his way through the enemy and brought back all his men safely.

His courage and leadership foiled enemy attempts to capture his patrol, which brought valuable information about enemy dispositions.
