An 80-year-old woman, Savitri Saxena, the mother of Shaurya Chakra awardee Vivek Saxena, has offered to return the medals and honors bestowed upon her late son due to unfulfilled promises made by the government. Vivek, who died in action in Manipur in 2003, was promised land and a memorial by authorities, but these have yet to be fulfilled. His family has faced bureaucratic hurdles, including being asked to prove their domicile in Uttar Pradesh despite having lived there for years. They discovered evidence that the state government had previously sent funds to their address, questioning the requirement. Despite repeated efforts, the process has stalled, leading Savitri to seek intervention from high-level officials, including the President and Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh.
