Three Indians died during UN peacekeeping ops to be honoured
United Nations: Three Indian security personnel who laid down their lives during UN peacekeeping operations last year will be among 112 peacekeepers to be honoured for their sacrifice at a ceremony here next week.

The UN will commemorate the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers on May 29 during which 112 blue helmets who were killed in the various operations across the world will be remembered and honoured.

The three Indians to be honoured are: Rifleman Lundup Gailpo who died March 24, 2011 while serving in Lebanon, Major Jaidev Singh Guleria who was killed on October 7 while serving with the UN peacekeeping mission in Congo and police constable Pritam Singh, who lost his life on August 6, 2011 also in Congo.
