Did you know that a Rabari herder from Kutch played a key role in two Indo-Pak wars? Recruited by the Indian Army as a scout, Ranchhod Pagi's exceptional tracking skills saved thousands of Indian lives during the two wars. Interestingly, after the 1971 war, Pagi was personally invited by an impressed Sam Manekshaw to meet him. The legendary Field Marshall sent a helicopter to bring the scout all the way from Gujarat, commended him for his work, gave him a reward of Rs 300 and then sat down to share a lunch with him.
