Wahengbam Lamnganba Singh (15) of Manipur has been selected by the Indian Council for Child Welfare (ICCW) for receiving the National Bravery Award.
He will be honoured because he had saved his two and half year’s old cousin brother from drowning in a pond.
The National Bravery Awards are given under the aegis of the Indian Council for Child Welfare (ICCW) on every Republic Day.
These awards are broadly classified into 5 categories, including the Bharat Award, Sanjay Chopra Award, Geeta Chopra Award, Bapu Gaidhani Award and the General National Bravery Awards.
