Several women from Aantehri village in Kurukshetra reached the martyr's house and tried to console the martyr's widow Prerna. The couple had got married two years ago, family members said. Prerna is a head constable with Haryana police and posted at Shahbad Markanda in Kurukshetra.
Mandeep's father said the Indian Army should give a befitting reply to Pakistan.
