Milk, Ice, Courage: Ferozepur’s 10-Year-Old Honoured with Bal Puraskar for Serving Army During Operation Sindoor

Sharvan Singh served soldiers daily with refreshments during May's Operation Sindoor, earning praise and educational support from the Indian Army's Golden Arrow Division.

  • On Friday, Sharvan Singh was among the 20 children given the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar by President Droupadi Murmu at a ceremony in New Delhi.
  • Sharvan lives in Chak Tara Wali village, Mamdot area, barely two kilometres from the India–Pakistan border where Operation Sindoor brought soldiers in May, prompting him to serve them.
  • By bringing milk, tea, buttermilk and ice daily, Sharvan earned admiration from Indian Army personnel, who honoured him as the Youngest Civil Warrior and whose Golden Arrow Division supports his education.
  • Local officials hailed the honour as Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and BJP Punjab president Sunil Jakhar congratulated the boy on X, while Sona Singh and Santosh Rani expressed pride in his courage.
  • Now inspired by soldiers, Sharvan Singh dreams of joining the Armed Forces, and his national recognition via the Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar has spurred Army and community support.
