HIGH ACHIEVERS IN SERVICE

Captain Joyanta Sengupta

battle casualty in the Indo-Pak conflict 1965.

Jojo is undoubtedly, by unanimous vote, the NUMBER 1 highest achiever in our course. He most unfortunately, lost both his eyes in war and was boarded out on medical grounds else he would have risen to be a COAS. His professional standing was that good.

He had the distinction of being appointed the Academy Cadet Captain of our course at NDA. He has always excelled and stood first.

After leaving the service, his wife Rita, an accomplished lady in her own rights, has been his source of strength.

Maj Gen Raj Mehta has written a superb tribute to this outstanding officer: “JoJo was a Braveheart, who, though small in size, had sky-high standards of bravery in adversity and in conduct becoming an officer and a gentleman of impeccable class of the rarest kind.”
