In May 1999, Saurabh went missing from patrol duty along with five other soldiers - Arjunram Baswana, Mula Ram Bidiasar, Naresh Singh Sinsinwar, Bhanwar Lal Bagaria and Bhika Ram Mudh - in Kargil's Kakar.
 
The Indian patrol was captured by the Pakistan Army and kept hostage for around a month before their bodies were returned in June.
 
The incident took place just before the start of the Kargil operation and during the war.
