Martyr Awadhesh Kumar Yadav leaves behind 2-year-old son

30-year-old Awadhesh Kumar Yadav, another soldier who died, had a rather interesting nickname in this village - "Bahadurpur ka Bahadur" or "Brave Man of Bahadurpur" - the play on the name of his village in eastern Uttar Pradesh's Chandauli district and the bravery that is associated with a job in the army or paramilitary forces. Awadhesh joined the CRPF in 2006. Over the last few years, Awadhesh had to muster up courage not just to work from the front because of an extremely challenging Kashmir posting, but also in helping his mother fight cancer.
