With the chants of "Bharat Mata ki Jai, Amar Pawar Amar Rahe," the jawan who was martyred in a Naxalite encounter was bid farewell on Monday.
Amar Pawar, a resident of Bawda in Khandala taluka, was on duty at the Narayanpur camp when a landmine planted by Naxalites exploded, injuring four jawans. Among them, Amar was seriously injured. Upon receiving the information, the seriously injured jawans were airlifted from Kasturmeta camp to Raipur for treatment. Unfortunately, Amar Pawar was declared dead during the treatment. This news prompted widespread mourning throughout Khandala taluka, Bawda village, and neighboring areas.
Born into a farmer family, Amar Pawar had his primary education in Bawda and furthered his studies in Khandala before joining the ITBP in 2010.
He is survived by his mother, father, brother, wife, and one son.
