Army Chief General Bipin Rawat on Monday awarded Major Nitin Gogoi a commendation card for his ‘sustained efforts’ on counter-insurgency operations, news agency PTI reported. Interestingly, the latest development comes a week after the Army had denied that its Court of Inquiry had given a clean chit to the officer who tied a local youth in front of a jeep as human shield to avoid attack from stone-pelters last month.
