													Yogendra Singh Yadav was awarded Param Vir Chakra at the age of 19 for his actions in the 1999 Kargil conflict (Source: Amazon.in)A new book “The Hero of Tiger Hill” tells the inspiring story of Subedar Major (Honorary Captain) Yogendra Singh Yadav, the youngest Param Vir Chakra awardee — India’s highest gallantry award — at the age of 19 for his actions in the 1999 Kargil conflict.

The autobiography, published by Srishti Publishers, is the true story of a brave soldier who left no stone unturned and fought valiantly for the honour of India.

“The idea of writing the book came to my mind over the last many years when I was invited to some of the top colleges of India like IIT-Delhi, IIT-Kanpur, IIM-Ahmedabad and IIM-Indore… I noticed that my simple but honest answers made a lot of impact and would go on to motivate these young students,” Subedar Major (Honorary Captain) Yadav told PTI.

“I decided then to write a book capturing my journey. My motive for writing the book is to motivate youngsters of India and inculcate a sense of patriotism. I hope my book is able to motivate more readers to serve the nation in some or other capacity,” he added.
