Martyr NS Rawat's remains dispatched to his village in Raj

The mortal remains of Havaldar NS Rawat, killed in the Uri terror attack, were today received by the local army unit, family members and representatives of the civil administration here.
The mortal remains of the martyr were received at around 4.15 pm and after a wreath-laying ceremony, they were dispatched to his native Rajva village in Rajsamand district by road, a defence spokesperson said.
The last rites will be performed tomorrow at Rajva.
Rawat, who attained martyrdom in the deadly terrorist attack yesterday at Uri in Jammu and Kashmir's Baramulla district, is survived by wife Rodi Devi, four daughters -- Payal, Deepa, Lata, Asha -- and son Chandan Singh.

Rajasthan Public Works Department Minister Kiran Maheshwari visited the home of the martyr at his native village and consoled the bereaved family members.
She also monitored the arrangements for Rawat's funeral to be held tomorrow.
The terror attack, believed to be carried out by Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), left 18 army jawans killed and more than 20 injured.
