How many awards of Nishan-e-Haider were conferred upon brave Pakistani soldiers who embraced Shahadat during the 1971 War?
- Five Pakistani soldiers have been decorated with Nishan-e-Haider, the highest military honour in Pakistan, for showing extraordinary bravery during the Indo-Pak War in 1971. These recipients are:
- Pilot Officer Rashid Minhas: This is the only recipient from the Pakistan Air Force, and he is also the youngest recipient. His bravery was recognized on August 20, 1971.
- Major Muhammad Akram: He was honored for his heroic actions in defending against the enemy in the Battle of Hilli. His bravery was recognized in December 1971.
- Major Shabbir Sharif: This officer was honored for his heroic actions in the Sulemanki sector. His bravery was recognized on December 6, 1971.
- Sowar Muhammad Hussain: This officer was honored for his bravery in the Zafarwal-Shakargarh sector. His bravery was recognized on December 10, 1971.
- Lance Naik Muhammad: For his valiance in the Wagah-Attari sector (December 17, 1971).
- Quick Info: Rashid Minhas was conferred the Nishan-e-Haider in 1971, but he died before the start of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, and hence his martyrdom is usually counted among the causalities of the 1971 Indo-Pak war.
