Behind every soldier is a group of silent soldiers who silently sign a pact to dedicate their whole life to the country. These silent soldiers are none other than his family – parents, siblings, children, and wives.
Anytime we hear the news of a soldier giving up his life for the nations, his family is shattered as well. Depicting how painful it is, recently a heartbreaking picture of Colonel Santosh Babu’s 4-year-old son went viral.
The mortal remains of Colonel Bikkumalla Santosh Babu were consigned to flames with full military honors in Suryapet in Telangana, on Thursday, 18th June.
As per reports, people came forward to pay their tributes to the brave officer amid chants of ‘Bharat mata ki jai’ and ‘Santosh babu amar rahe’.
Pictures from his last rites also show his wife and son paying their respects and saluting the martyred officer.

కొన్ని ఫొటోలు కేవలం ఆ context ను చెప్పే images కావు. వెన్ను విరిగినా, జీవితం ఉల్టా పల్టా అయినా, ధైర్యంగా, ఆత్మవిశ్వాసంతో ఎలా ఉండాలో, కొట్ల మందికి చెప్పే శక్తి కేంద్రాలు .
