The children, mostly belonging to the age group of eight to 12 years, listened to the stories with rapt attention.
Param Vir Chakra is the highest military honour bestowed on those serving in the Armed forces.
The stories narrated are part of the NBT’s ‘Veergatha’ series, which is based on the lives of 21 Param Vir Chakra winners.
