Twentytwo year old Constable L Perumal hails from Perraiyur near Madurai, Tamil Nadu. His family is in a state of shock on receiving news about his death.
The coffins have arrived in Delhi airport and are being sent to the respective families.
Even as Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde revealed in Parliament today that the fidayeen militants had weapons made in Pakistan, and had other Pakistani identities, the opposition tried to corner him by asking why the government had hosted lunch to the visiting Pakistani Prime Minister in Jaipur last week.
