On night 12/13 June 1999 during "Operation Vijay", Subedar Bhawar Lal was leading his platoon to capture Tololing Top in the Drass Sector. As they closed in with the objective, the enemy brought down heavy fire on them. The leading section of his platoon suffered three casualties and the attack was stalled temporarily. 

At this juncture, Subedar Bhawar Lal took the lead and kept extracting his section to move ahead. 50 metres of the enemy positions, he got a burst of light machine gun fire. Unmindful of his injuries, he moved ahead with his men and continued to do so till he succumbed to his injuries at the base of the enemy position. The enthused section could destroy the enemy position only due to the excellent leadership of Subedar Bhawar Lal who displayed inspiring leadership and bravery and made the supreme sacrifice for capturing Tololing Top.
