Lieutenant Manoj Sinha on Tuesday paid tribute to Maqbool Sherwani who delayed and misguided the invasion of Pashtuns tribesmen from Pakistan in Baramulla of J&K’s Kashmir region in October 1947.
Maqbool played an important role in buying time for Indian Army who landed in Srinagar once the accession was accepted. Sherwani was killed by the tribesmen.
