Podcast

One of the greatest rescue missions in Indian military history — Operation Khukri — finally comes alive in its full glory.
In this gripping episode of The Democratic Hindu News Podcast, host Pawan KK Nagpal sits down with two powerful voices who bring the story to life: Ex Lt. General V.K. Jaitley, a decorated Army veteran who witnessed the mission’s legacy unfold, and Abhishek Dudhaiya, the filmmaker behind the movie Bhuj: The Pride of India, now working on a cinematic tribute to Operation Khukri.

This isn’t just a podcast — it’s a patriotic deep dive into the real events that unfolded in Sierra Leone under the United Nations Peacekeeping Mission, where Indian soldiers fought against all odds to rescue their comrades from rebel forces.
