Bravery does not always wear a uniform. Sometimes, it comes in the form of small hands, a kind heart, and the courage to help without being asked. India’s youngest civilian warrior story proves that age does not decide heroism. In a quiet village near the India Pakistan border, a 10-year-old boy showed that real strength lies in selfless action.
Who is the young hero?
Shravan Singh, a 10-year-old boy from Tara Wali village in Punjab’s Firozpur district, has been honoured as the youngest civilian to be recognised as a Civil Warrior during Operation Sindoor. While soldiers of the Indian Army were stationed in his village, Shravan noticed how hard they were working under tough conditions. Without anyone asking him to help, he took it upon himself to support them.
Every day, Shravan carried water, milk, lassi, and ice to the soldiers so they could stay hydrated and refreshed while on duty. His efforts may have seemed small, but they made a big difference to the soldiers serving the nation.
India’s Youngest Civil Warrior Gets Special Honour
Touched by his kindness, dedication, and courage, the Indian Army honoured Shravan Singh with the title of “Youngest Civil Warrior of Operation Sindoor”. The recognition celebrates not just his actions, but the spirit behind them.
