ITANAGAR, SEP 24:

Governor Lt Gen KT Parnaik (Retd) presented the Governor’s Citation to Subedar & Honorary Lieutenant Karn Singh, House Comptroller, Lok Bhavan, at Vivekananda Hall, Lok Bhavan, here on Thursday, in recognition of his distinguished military service and contribution to the efficient management of the Governor’s establishment.

Congratulating Singh, the Governor said he embodies the values of dedication, discipline, integrity and selfless service associated with the finest traditions of the Indian armed forces. A veteran of the Kargil War and soldier of the Rajputana Rifles, Singh served the nation with courage and commitment in challenging operational environments.

Parnaik particularly appreciated his service as House Comptroller since May 2023, saying he had ensured smooth administration, effective security management and the efficient functioning of Lok Bhavan with professionalism, attention to detail and a strong sense of responsibility.

He encouraged Singh to inspire youth to consider careers in the Armed Forces and expressed confidence that his legacy of service, courage and commitment would continue to inspire young Indians.
