Captain Karnal Sher Khan joined the Pakistan Army in 1992. During the Kargil conflict, he was assigned to clear a vital position. He and his fellow soldiers ignored the firepower of the opponents and bravely managed to push them back.He led the charge and was able to inflict heavy losses on the enemy. The Indian officer in charge, who witnessed his bravery, placed a praise-filled note in his pocket.
Captain Sher Khan embraced martyrdom on July 5, 1999, and his family members were proud to learn that he gave up his life for the country. He left an everlasting mark on the younger generation in his family who firmly believe that there would be nothing without the country.
During his academic and professional career, people questioned Captain Karnal Sher Khan’s name as it did not seem suitable but later on when he became Lieutenant it served him well as anytime someone would ask his name he would say I am Lieutenant Karnal Sher Khan and so was given extra respect.
According to his relatives, the biggest motivation for him to join the army was the chance to attain martyrdom. After settling into his military career, he used to be asked about his plans of getting married to which he replied that I will get married in the heavens.He cared for the needy and spent most of his salary delivering essential items to them without informing his family members. It was only after his martyrdom that those people came to his house and disclosed that they have lost their benefactor.
