Citation:

On 5 December 1971, Second Lieutenant Jayendra Jai Singh Rane was commanding a company of Garhwal Rifles, which was ordered to capture an enemy post near Hill in the Eastern Sector. The company was pinned down by heavy fire. Though seriously wounded in one leg, he manoeuvred one platoon to a flank so as to extricate the other two. In doing so, he was shot in his other leg also but with complete disregard for his own life, he continued to conduct the fight to extricate his men until he succumbed to his wounds in the midst of battle.

In this action, Second Lieutenant Rane displayed gallantry and determination of a high order.
