Citation:

On 11 December 1971, Second Lieutenant Hardev Pal Nayyar was platoon commander in a company, which was assigned the task of attacking an enemy post in the Western Sector. During the assault, his platoon was held up by automatic fire from the enemy bunkers. Second Lieutenant Hardev Pal Nayyar, with complete disregard for his personal safety, crawled up to two bunkers and silenced them with grenades. While charging the third bunker, he was hit by a burst of MMG fire. Though seriously wounded, he kept on encouraging his men till the post was captured when he succumbed to his injuries. In this action, Second Lieutenant Nayyar displayed gallantry, determination and leadership of a high order.
