New Delhi [India], February 9 (ANI): Geetika Lidder, wife of late Brigadier Lakhwinder Singh Lidder shared insights about her book, “I Am a Soldier’s Wife” describing it as a tribute to her late husband and their life together.
Brigadier Lidder lost his life in a helicopter crash in December 2021, along with former Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat, in Tamil Nadu’s Nilgiri Hills.
Speaking about the book, she said, “The book is about my husband and the life I led with him. This is just a normal book, and it is our story. Love is forever, and he’s not there with me in the physical form, but he’s giving me strength, and support, and the army is there with us. We have a wonderful fraternity and are surrounded by love.”
Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi launched the book “I Am a Soldier’s Wife” on Saturday, authored by Geetika Lidder.
Speaking on the occasion, the Army Chief said, “This volume aptly titled ‘I am a Soldier’s Wife’ encapsulates, not just the life of a soldier but the essence of a devoted husband, a cherished father, and an aspiring leader of the Indian Army in general, and the J&K Rifles Regiment in particular.”
He also spoke about the four essential “C’s” of leadership and said, “I call them four C’s. That is character. Competence. Conduct and Commitment. It may not be an exaggeration if I mention here that these four C’s were probably inspired by the personality of Lakhwinder.”
“A man whose life was a testament of courage, integrity, achievements and unwavering commitment to the profession,” he added.
“His sudden departure along with the first CDS Bipin Rawat in the tragic crash leaves an indelible void in the hearts of all who knew him and admire the values he stood for,” the Army Chief added. (ANI)
