About the Book

This is the story of a few good men. The men of the
4th bn Brigade of the Guards (1 Rajput). They were
simple, ordinary men, like you and me. But when
push came to shove, they rose to the occasion and
left an indelible mark on the pages of history.
THE GARUD STRIKES is the compelling story of 4
Guards (1 Rajput) and the critical role they played in
the 1971 Indo-Pak War; in freeing seventy-five million
people from the torturous and bloody clutches of the
Pakistani Army.
In merely sixteen days, under the inspiring leadership
of Lt. Col. Himmeth Singh, 4 Guards (1 Rajput), played
a pivotal role in leading for India one of the fastest
successful military campaigns of modern times; one
which not only led to the creation of Bangladesh,
but also resulted in the capture of 95,000 Pakistani
soldiers.
Narrated by Mukul Deva, India’s literary storm trooper,
in his inimitable, compelling style, THE GARUD
STRIKES is the breath taking story of the lightning
campaign, seen through the eyes of the officers,
JCO s and men of 4 Guards (1 Rajput).
As you trudge through the mud and slush of
Bangladesh, you will smell the gun smoke, the impact
of bullets on flesh, the blood, the fears and tears, as 4
Guards (1 Rajput) smashed its way through the pride
of the Pakistani Army, in their dash for Dacca.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
