According to New Indian Express, Lt. General KJS Dhillon popularly known as ‘Tiny Dhillon’, got commissioned in the army in December 1983. He earned widespread appreciation for initiating Operation Maa’ during his tenure as the head of Kashmir-based XV Corps where he approached the families especially mothers of misguided youths who had joined militancy and requested them to bring back their children into the national mainstream.
