In a scene straight out of a Bollywood tear-jerker, an Armyman, who was presumed to have died in an accident nearly seven years ago, returned home to the astonishment of his family in Alwar’s Behror town in Rajasthan.

Dharmveer Yadav, who was an Army soldier, had gone missing following a car accident in Dehradun on November 27 in 2009 and even his family pension was started in 2012 after the force presumed him dead.

It was a road accident that had separated Yadav from his family and it was a similar mishap which brought them together.

Five or six days back, a motorcycle hit Dharmveer when he was wandering on the streets of Haridwar. He received a mild injury to the head which brought his memory back.

After regaining his memory, he reached Behror in a bus from Delhi on Monday night using the Rs 500 the motorcyclist had given him after the accident.

Family shocked

His father Kailash Yadav initially did not answer his call to open the door thinking he was either dreaming or there was some drunken man at the door.

“After second or third knock, I realised that I was not dreaming and rushed to the door. I went numb after seeing my son who for us was dead. I could not even utter a word. My elder son and his wife also came and brought Dharmveer and me into the room. No one could believe that he had returned,” Kailash, also an ex-serviceman, said.

Alwar district Soldier Welfare Officer R. P. Yadav said he has informed Dharmveer’s unit about his return.

“I have communicated to the CO of his unit, who advised to get his medical check up done. Dharmveer will be handed over to his unit,” the officer said.

Dharmveer’s wife and two daughters were very happy to see him back.
