His studies

• We didnt know the other nick name of himas
  KALABAN, name inspired by his
  scientific mind (from our President Mr. Abdul
  Kalams name), which was given by his college
  mateswe didnt know until, he was brought back
  to our house wrapped in our National flag
• Well, he started his Masters in Physics from
  BHC Trichy, when he received his call letter for
  joining Officers Training Academy, at St Thomas
  Mount, Chennai. He impatiently waited for his
  merit list soon after clearing his Combined
  Defense Service Examination and Service Selection
  Board interview respectively

10
Intelligent and Good natured guy as well

• Yes he scored 86 in his CBSE 12th std at KV
  IIT, Chennai. The prize he won as orator, also
  number of physics quizzesdescribes about him
  better.
• He was such a considerate person, used to
  help neighbors friends voluntarily in
  rectifying their electronic goods.
• I would say, he was the only mature child of
  our family. He used to be so specific in his
  words, so decent and disciplinedmannerism could
  be learnt from him in every single step he
  tookand also protective brother..!

11
NCC was the base and inspiration apart from
being from the army background

• NCC became the base of his inspiration to be
  an army officer. He joined senior wing NCC in his
  college, got his C certificate and came out be
  a successful senior as well, by helping his
  juniors in securing 100 result in their B
  certificate examination under his guidance
  leadership.
• We still go through the letter mailed to my
  father, stating Papa I will meet you in OTA
  soon And as he promised to our papa, he
  underwent his training enthusiastically and was
  appointed as a Sergeant at the academy
• It as a kind of Josh he had to join the
  Indian Armythough we knew he was so much into
  Electronics and Computer sciencehe started his
  part time work on the same during his college
  days.

Lt. N. Parthibans Poem...

• Operation future
• March ahead my noble soldier,
• As our safety rests on your shoulder.
• You live by chance and love by choice.
• Where there is nothing to rejoice.
• You have the heart to bear all pain.
• Moving through sun, snow and rain,
• Yours is a breed that fights like a king.
• For you, its never a personal thing
• You are my role model without a question
• As you lead, protect and kill by profession.
• Be it a regular duty or a CI operation.
• With death always looming near,
• You keep vigil without fear.
• You are the one who lives for the country's name.
• Not caring for money, glamour or fame.
• You are the one- the leader of the game
• And I would like to become the same.
•

Another sensational poem

• Fond memories....She thought everything
  was over.And he was gone forever.He was dead,
  thats what every one thought.But he lived by the
  flowers he had bought.Out there, he was always
  thinking,Without her, nothing had any
  meaning.The flowers had lots of things to
  say.To show his feelings, he had found a
  way.He always lived by chance.So he paid the
  florist in advance.The flowers kept coming, No
  matter what she was doingOn her birthday or any
  other occasionThe flowers brought her greetings
  for the season.She could just hold the flowers
  close to her heartAnd think about the way they
  had to part.But the flowers kept comingTelling
  her to keep going.Going through times travelled
  and untravelled Life and death never mattered
  for him, she recalledExcept that he always loved
  her, his lady in red.The days kept going...The
  flowers kept coming...N. Parthiban M Sc. 2005

for his senior...

• Capt. T. Sahaya Selvaraj SM (P)
• A Winner and an Alumni of HonorCapt. T.
  Sahaya Selvaraj graduated in physics from Bishop
  Heber College in April 2000. He joined the Indian
  Army through NCC special entry scheme and
  excelled in his basic training. He completed his
  SSC (NT) course and passed out from the officers
  Training Academy on 7th sent 2002. He was
  selected for the prestigious Electrical and
  Mechanical Engineers (EME) Corps and was posted
  to 4 GARHWAL RIFLES which was intensely in the
  counter insurgency operation OP RAKSHAK". An
  operation which was a befitting answer to the
  attack on the parliament.On 6th may 2003, he
  and his men were detailed to intercept a group of
  terrorists in JK. The young lieutenant carefully
  planned the attack, but against the reported
  numbers the enemy troops outnumbered them in
  strength and had much more sophisticated weapons.
  Then, the young lieutenant was faced with a
  choice. Before him were terrorists who would do
  an irreparable damage to our country. While
  behind him lay life, fame and a home. More than a
  year has passed since he made his decision.And
  even today, his comrades tell of his unflinching
  determination and raw courage. He was killed in
  action that day trying to make India a bit more
  secure. For his brave deeds on the field and his
  supreme sacrifice, he was awarded the Sena Medal
  (gallantry) by the president of India,
  posthumously.The late Capt. T. Sahay Selvaraj's
  career lasted just nine months, but he will live
  on for ever. He is one of the many sons of India,
  who have laid down their lives to make this a
  safer country. We Heberians are proud to belong
  to the college that was his alma mater.

More about this Martyr.

• We have been informed about his initiative
  by his co- NCC matesIn fact, he with his friends
  created a trophy to be awarded to the Best
  platoon in the name of Late. Capt. Sahaya
  Selvaraj, ex- NCC cadet from the same college,
  who was also killed in action in Jammu
  Kashmirhe also wrote a very inspiring article
  about this senior, which was published in his
  college magazine
•  
•  He was so thoughtful and got involved
  immensely in the same way as other martyrs like
  Lt. Manoj Pandey, Capt. Vikram Bathra etc,
  posthumous PVC Gallantry awardees, but did he
  ever knew! he was going to become the same, would
  sacrifice himself in the successive year..!
•  
• March 18th he had his passing out parade
  at OTA, remember after his piping out ceremony,
  he marched towards my papa, who is a retired
  major of Indian Army, saluted himI saw tears
  flowing from them. I wish you could come and see
  my mother, always busy with his photos taken
  during all the stages of his life, which
  are only treasure for us.. and my younger sister
  remains watching silently and crying inside

17
Cont.

• We still feel he could have served for some
  more years in the armyrather than finishing his
  commissioned service in 6 months and 19
  days.soon after a years training in the OTA
•  
• Going through his write ups and inspiring
  words, actually made us thinkhe was very
  confident and had planned well before about his
  future.it made us feel he is the one who could
  be called as the real patriotic of this soil
•  
• Very articulate his thoughts were
•  
• Born to do
• Aim of his beingand
• Proved to be a true Son, a Brother, and
  a Buddy and a National
• a true youth of this Mother Land

Inspiration in his words

• " Yeh dil maange more"Some goals are so
  worthy, it is glorious even to fail"- Lt. Manoj
  Pandey PVC 1/11GRCAPT. Vikram Batra PVC 13 JAK
  RIFReading these lines for the first time was a
  hair rising experience for me. And knowing the
  circumstances under which they were said, I was
  shocked beyond belief. Both of them were men,
  about my age, laying down their lives for the
  country and saying nothing but inspiring words.
  The words just kept echoing in my mind and made
  me take a serious look at my aim less life. The
  Then it came to my mind, like a flash of light,
  as to what i should do. I joined the NCC.ARMY
  WING of our collegeJoining the NCC was not
  easy and serving it for three years was even more
  "not easy". I had to toil hard on the field with
  75 odd cadets. But then there was something in
  the NCC that kept me going with new zeal and
  enthusiasm. That something, I was to know in the
  next three years, was the seed for my new life.
  Those three years were actually a long journey,
  which I undertook as a student, but finished up
  as a winner and a man.Going down memory lane, I
  still remember my first parade. I just coundnt
  run and fell right down on my face. And instead
  of helping me up, the senior most cadet shouted
  at me "Can't you run jus four rounds in this
  ground? I got a useful pointer then life is
  not going to be a bed of roses.Then time went on
  at blink- and you -will- miss speed. I became a
  second year cadet, attended various camps and
  finally became a third year senior cadet. This
  was the time when we third years learnt the great
  rule followed by all army officers, the credo of
  the Indian Military Academy, which says-The
  safety, honor and welfare of yourCountry come
  first, always and every time.The honors, welfare
  and comforts of theMen you command come
  next.You own ease, comfort and safety comeLast,
  always and every time"
• Apart from this, I learnt the real
  meaning of team work, human relations, man and
  material management, resourcefulness, tack,
  sacrifice, camaraderie, the concept of service,
  the thing called life and leading from the
  front.The NCC helped me to get face to face
  with real life situations and is helping
  thousands of others in this regards. The NCC
  today is a 1.3 million strong force which is
  constantly striving hard to make India the VISION
  INDIA, the proof of which lies in the huge human
  resource of khaki clad cadets and my respect for
  them.JAIHIND

Lt. Parthiban memorable moment

• The Uncertainty Principle In LifeLife
  is an endless journey, full of emotions, some
  pleasant and some not so pleasant. But there are
  some incidents, which are like movie trailers.
  They keep on playing in the head again and
  again.I remember one such incident in Nagpur. I
  was there for a camp at the NCC Officers Training
  Academy. Near the academy, there was a small park
  and on the lastday of the camp, I went there for
  a walk. The park was deserted except for a man
  and very young boy. They were playing and running
  all over the park. It was a kind of scene, which
  could make anybody feel good. The man would say
  "OK lets go home now and the boy would say with
  unlimited vigor and enthusiasm "daddy just five
  more minutes". I was amused as this went on and
  on and they played for more than two hours.
  Finally they sat on a bench near mine and man
  smiled at me.Returning the smile, I told him
  "Sir, you must be the most patient and wonderful
  of all fathers". At ths the man just grinned and
  looked up into the evening sky. When he looked at
  me again he was a completely changed man with
  tears in his eyes. He told me a story. It seems
  that he had a daughter, aged seven, who always
  wanted to play with him and spend sometime with
  him. But, for him, his work was more important.
  He soon realized his mistake as his daughter died
  in a road accident. he could never play with her,
  ever for five minutes.Back in the academy, I
  was punished for coming late into barracks but i
  learnt something that day. Life is completely
  unpredictable and no one can ever see the future.
  If we love somebody, we have to show it somehow.
  That night, I got an out pass and went out to the
  only phone booth in the academy. I called up my
  parents and told them that I loved them.
