Today is the Death Anniversary of "Major Aziz Bhatti Shaheed" Born in 1928 in Hong Kong, Bhatti moved to Pakistan before partition. As company commander in the Burki area of Lahore sector, Major Bhatti chose to move his forward platoon under constant fire from Indian tanks and artillery. He resisted for five days and nights defending a Pakistani outpost on the strategic BRB canal. He led his men from the front under constant attack from Indian batteries. Although he countered every Indian offensive in his area, on the fifth day he was hit by an enemy tank shell. He died instantaneously. May Allah bless him!
