Kejriwal salutes martyred Army captain in Kashmir encounter
Kejriwal wrote on Twitter: "Salute to Captain Tushar Mahajan. Whole nation is indebted to the sacrifice of our brave soldiers."
Mahajan is one of the six soldiers who lost their lives in the encounter. He is also the second captain after Captain Pawan Kumar who lost his life in the ensuing fire exchange.
The standoff started last night after militants entered the JKEDI building on Saturday evening.
