Second Lieutenant Achyuta Rayalu...


Second Lieutenant Achyuta Rayalu of second Sikh Light Infantry may not be known to you but he was my uncle who sacrificed his life in 1962 Sino-Indian war. In every war, many soldiers become Heroes but many more remain as unsung Heroes...an unsung hero who acts bravely in a battle but without being noticed, without much recognition. In every war, thousands or hundreds of soldiers get killed but only a few get recognition for their sacrifices. All war represents failure of diplomacy... with all its death and destruction, war is nothing but a catastrophic failure of diplomacy.To stop terror and avoid war, we must first understand what causes it. Can we prevent a war? Can we make our world a safer place to live in? More attention needs to be given by our leaders in implementing prevention strategies that remove the conditions for conflict and war. Let us prevent future wars and make this world beautiful and peaceful. Col Pradeep Pendyala, Anaesthesiologist.
