Seventy-eight-year old Bishambar says he doesn't use his last name much - everyone here refers to him as Grenadier Bishambar. His old regiment is his only identity. For nearly 70 days, the old Grenadier has been praying intently every night before he tries to sleep. Sleep is a luxury. There are many thoughts in his mind. When will he return home? When will the protests over One Rank, One Pension finally end? Will he get a few thousand rupees more every month as pension? Will the government finally give his fellow ex-servicemen the respect that he feels has been denied to them?
