It is a matter of great pride that the son of one of the Indian Army heroes of the Bangladesh liberation war in 1971 was invited for a lecture to the 3rd International Conference of the Bangladesh Vascular Society (BVS) in Dhaka on 9th March 2024.

Dr Harinder Singh Bedi – Director of Cardio Vascular Sciences at the Park Hospital Mohali – is the son of decorated late Maj KMS Bedi (retd) who led his troops of paratroopers to land behind enemy lines in 1971. Maj Bedi was leading his highly trained brave heart paratrooper section of the then secret 22 Est based in Chakrata . His men were para-dropped behind the enemy lines by air to surround the Pakistani Army. This helped in forcing surrender to the Indian Army on 16 Dec 1971.
