Hi
Im so proud of that guy protecting the girl from getting raped. I can not, abosolutly can not stand assholes that have no life and think that its ok to rape others for the plessure. Those who do that, I hope you burn in hell or something absolutlly harrible happenes to you. When that happens i hope you have the feeling that, that girl had when she was scared and helpless. I hope your balls get cut and you die slowly you pease of shit. And that guy that saved the young girl from a horrible event i wish him All In This Life. Only the best and better. I’m proud to here that their are nice people out there.

I m proud of U brother and I m proud to be a Gurkha. U have reminded the world about our bravery. And I salute U for saving a woman’s dignity !!
Dear Bishnu,
I have not heard such bravery.You listened to your conscience and the Universal energy flowed through you to fight 40 dacoits and kill three.
Gorkhas,India and the world is proud of you.
There is no other Bishnu in this world.If this Bishnu is multiplied by
10000,then no girl will be raped in India.God be with you.
This is amazing! The fact that he took action to save an unknown girl from tragedy is actually quite inspiring. I’m glad his bravery has garnered him more than a round of applause and a pat on the back.
Where would we be without our Johnny Gurka-Gorkhas? We still value and respect them here in the UK.
The bravery of the Gurkha soldier is legendary. That is why the British Army to this day maintains a Gurkha regiment. They are also intensely loyal. That is why Field Marshall SJMF Maneckshaw retained his Gurkha orderlies as his personal servants when he retired and they remained with him to his last day. My brother in India sold his factory long ago but the factory’s Gurkha watchman, Gur Bahadur, continues to serve him as his personal attache. He told my brother “Pagar nahi day gaa toh be hum kam par ayega”!
So hats off to this brave son of the “Gorkhali” who saved a woman’s honor and took on 40 shameless robbers single-handedly. Such bravery is indeed very rare and I am happy that he has been suitably rewarded and above all appreciated.
This man has proven that chivalry has not left this world! Like a true knight, he defended the weak and helpless and resolutely took on overwhelming odds in defence of the right. I admire, honour and respect this brave Ghurka and am confident that his deeds will be spoken of many years from now. AYO GORKHALI!
