BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO Mr. M. C. Sharma........


Good Evening friends, this is my way to give tributes and honour to Bravo Cop M C Sharma, I publish two post dedicated to him only. I Salute him and want to add my words here—M C Sharma Amar Rahe, Amar Rahe, Amar Rahe…….




Delhi Police Inspector Mohan Chand Sharma, who died battling terrorists during an encounter, was on Saturday cremated with full state honours after a tearful adieu.

The mortal remains of 41-year old Sharma, considered an encounter specialist and posted with elite anti-terror squad Special Cell, were consigned to flames after the Delhi Police contingent paid him a three-gun salute.

The body, draped in a Delhi Police flag, was brought to the Nigambodh Ghat here with 12 personnel escorting it amid chants of ‘Bharta Mata Ki Jai’ and ‘M C Sharma Amar Rahe’.

A number of political leaders, including Home Minister Shivraj Patil, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, Minister of State for Home Sriprakash Jaiswal and former Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani as well as Lt Governor Tejinder Khanna attended the funeral.

Among others present were Home Secretary Madhukar Gupta, Delhi Commissioner of Police Y S Dadwal and former CPs Ajai Raj Sharma and K K Paul.


All the dignitaries placed wreaths on the body of the departed officer.


Sharma was a highly decorated officer with seven gallantry medals to his credit, including President's Medal for Gallantry.


Sharma served the city police for 19 years before falling to the bullet of heavily armed terrorists in a fierce gun battle at a house in South Delhi on Friday.
