42: 342:, as everything seems to be about the MVC action, and there doesn't seem to be "significant coverage" of his whole life in reliable sources. I mean, we are missing 26 years of his life and all of his army career except four days. It certainly can't be a GA due to failing to meet criteria #3, so I am going to quick-fail it. Good luck with finding more material on him. 226:
So I went through the source you mentioned carefully. Regarding the Brigadier, there is only one page available in the preview (pg 288) and there is no eBook of the same (the eBook links to only vol 1 of the same series while the book in question is vol 2). But the little that is mentioned about his

I am surprised too. There are plentiful accounts of his valour in the October of 1947 when he died fighting, but before that, nearly zilch. I am stumbling upon a minor point or two here and there, but even those are related to his last stand and not his early years in the military; will add bit by

I couldn't find anything substantive detailing his initial career. If there is anything out there, it isn't easily available online. It is ok if you fail it. I am withdrawing it too on the basis of the points you raised. I will keep criteria #3 in mind for the future.

I don't think this article contains sufficient detail about Singh's career to meet the GA criteria, and in fact is a long way off meeting criteria #3. It jumps 26 years of his life from him being commissioned in 1921 to the 1947 war. On that basis I am leaning towards

Actually, forget that, I've managed to take a look at the relevant pages, and there is nothing. I am starting to be concerned about whether there is even enough for an article on this fellow per

Now just to make sure, both the book and the article are talking about the same person, no mistake in that. It seems like an official Government of India publication,
