The Untold Story, Confrontation with Pakistan
Brij Mohan Kaul (1912-1972) was a Lieutenant General in the Indian Army.[1] He served as the Chief of General Staff during 1961–1962 and was regarded as a key architect of Indian military response to the Chinese challenge.[2]
In October 1962, he was given the command of a newly raised IV Corps to counter the impending Chinese invasion of NEFA (modern day Arunachal Pradesh),[3] but it got routed by the Chinese.[4]
He resigned in the aftermath of the war, and was awarded the Param Vishisht Seva Medal in 1960.
