Colleagues Give Hearty Farewell To Retiring Indian Army Officer Lt Gen KJS Dhillon In A Touching Video

Military and its traditions are unique and only a person who has been a part of this organization or has been closely related can fully understand them. People in the military forces put their entire life on hold and put it on the line just to protect us. So, obviously, their farewell should befit their exemplary services to the nation.

A video of a heartwarming military tradition has come to light where officers can be seen giving their colleague a wonderful farewell. The video, which was shared by Lieutenant General Kanwal Singh Jeet Dhillon shows how his colleagues are lifting and swinging a chair that he is sitting on.

While swinging their colleague in his chair, they joyfully sing 'he's a jolly good fellow, so say all of us'. The person sitting on the said chair aka Lt. General Dhillon can also be seen clapping and singing the song with everyone else.

He is a Jolly Good Fellow

Hope So ?

According to New Indian Express, Lt. General KJS Dhillon got commissioned in the army in December 1983. The respectable officer, popularly known as 'Tiny Dhillon', earned widespread appreciation for initiating Operation Maa' during his tenure as the head of Kashmir-based XV Corps where he approached the families especially mothers of misguided youths who had joined militancy and requested them to bring back their children into the national mainstream.

"Do good and serve your mother, then your mother and then your father. This is the importance of the mother in the Holy Quran. This was the message I used to tell all the misguided youths," Lt Gen Dhillon had said.

The officer served the Indian Army for 39 long years.
