A former group captain with the Indian Air Force (IAF) has shared a touching piece of art that depicts a soldier’s life, believed to be a reference to the attack on a convoy of security forces in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama in 2019.
Nitin Welde posted the drawing, which was made on a single long piece of paper and depicts numerous situations from the soldier’s life as a portion of the sheet is folded horizontally. The artwork depicts a soldier hugging his wife while holding a single rose in his palm. He is then seen kissing his pregnant wife goodbye and boarding a bus. The bus is seen driving through a forested region before bursting into flames.
The following section depicts a row of caskets wrapped in the Indian tricolor, followed by a soldier honoring those killed in the attack. The storyline is concluded with a simple “Jai Hind” written over a white background in the artwork’s final scene.
No one can hold back their tears when they see the artwork depicting how much a soldier sacrifices for his nation. They are the true heroes in all of our lives.
