#1 Soldiers body: military honours accorded

Thiruvananthapuram, April 8.: The body of Lance Havildar G. Ramachandran, who died fighting terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir on April 5, was received with military honours at the International Airport here on Sunday afternoon.

The 29-year-old soldier had joined the 16 Madras Regiment in 1995. His wife, Mutulakshmi and his two-year-old son survive him. The body was taken under Army and State Police escort to his native place at Thuravankara in Thenkasi taluk in Thirunelveli district in Tamil Nadu.

The Additional District Magistrate, K. Surendran, placed a wreath on behalf of the Chief Minister of Kerala. Earlier, soldiers from the Madras Regiment presented arms and Army buglers sounded the last post in mark respect for the fallen soldier.
