Citation:

On 5 December 1961, a company of 3/1 GR was ordered to clear a strongly held enemy roadblock at a vital communication centre in the Congo. While advancing, the platoon under Subedar Satya Jit Pun faced heavy fire. Undaunted Subedar Pun crawled towards the house from where enemy fire was holding up the advance. He was spotted by the enemy who threw a grenade at him. Subedar Pun's right elbow was injured and he began bleeding profusely. Even though in agonising pain, he rushed at the enemy and killed three of them. 

The enemy post was liquidated and the objective was captured.
