Hello,
I’m Jayashree
Welcome to my blog.
I believe that writing is one of the easiest forms of expression. That is all this blog is about. My thoughts, my views and my feelings; sometimes with a tinge of motivation and optimism and some others with a feeling of melancholy. I also write about the Indian Armed Forces; to honour the memory of some known heroes and many that remain unsung.
Coomar – The story of Maj Sudhir Walia AC SM*, an exclusive biography of the Legendary 9 PARA SF officer has been authored by me.
Hope there is something that you find relatable and interesting here.

Happy Reading!
