Honour his sacrificeAbout the Book
Coomar is the first exclusive biography of a Special Forces officer — Major Sudhir Kumar Walia, AC, SM*, of 9 Para (SF).
It looks beyond his warrior qualities to the values he held important: perseverance, determination, compassion and bravery. As Misty Copeland wrote, 'Start unknown, finish unforgettable' — and Maj Walia's life is the finest example of it.
He is remembered as talented and happy-go-lucky, yet deeply responsible, with a quiet righteousness about him. Honoured with the Ashoka Chakra, he is a legend and an inspiration within the army and beyond.
Author Jaishree Laxmikant gave up a corporate career to write. Available in English and Hindi, Coomar is the result of her deep research into the life of a brave heart who, in her words, was very close to her.
Men may come and men may go, but I go on for ever.
Start unknown, finish unforgettable.
