Romeo... It's an order! Part one (Captioned) Bullet shells drop on the ground, cartilage being loaded and smoke in the air reducing the visibility. The sounds would make a layman whine in desperation. For the Indian Military, this is an everyday chore. The encounter began after militants fired on Special Operations Group and Rashtriya Rifles personnel who cordoned off the Hingnikoot Ramhal area in Kashmir's Handwara region. As per the information the terrorists were hiding inside a house in Pazalpora village in Sopore township of the district. Two or three militants were believed to be trapped in the area. The intermittent firing had been taking place. Captain Kritin, better be named Romeo was accustomed to encounters as such. Being in service for quite a few years now, this ammo laced, techno-savvy beast knew how to munch his prey. He specialised in closed quarter combat. Long or short of what we call 'Perfection'. After a successful operation, the first thing after returning to the base was to check his phone. He knew his mother would call him about the tenth time to know if he has boarded his plane. Clearing the official statements and reports, he hurried to the airport so as not to lose the chance to meet them after two long years. Last time, their leaves were cancelled on account of the tension between neighbouring countries. Before that, he was injured during the operation which made his return impossible.
