The body of Major Chitresh Singh Bist, 34, was brought to Dehradun from Kashmir on Sunday and kept in the military hospital. “I called back the same number and came to know that my son was no more,” Bist told reporters in Dehradun, crying inconsolably. Chitresh died two days after the Pulwama suicide bomb attack in which 40 CRPF jawans were killed.
