Captain Anshuman, who was martyred on July 19, 2023, while saving his mates in Siachen, was posthumously awarded the Kirti Chakra by the Indian government.
“Smriti, our daughter-in-law, receives most entitlements after our son's death. However, she does not live with us,” the Captain's parents told a news channel.
Smriti Singh, wife of late Captain Anshuman Singh, received Kirti Chakra posthumously for the ultimate sacrifice Singh made to save fellow army personnel.
