In Canadian PM Justin Trudeau’s New Age cabinet, it is the Sikh Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan, who is hogging the headlines.

Canadian media has discovered that Harjit Sajjan took enormous personal risk during his deployment in Afghanistan, and was responsible for the killing or capture of 1,500 Taliban.

Harjit Sajjan took advantage of his long beard and Indian looks to mingle with the local population, and gather intelligence about Taliban activities. He put his own life in danger almost on daily basis.

It was this intelligence that was responsible for the killing or capture of 1,500 Taliban.

National Observer accessed a 2006 letter written by Brigadier General David Fraser to Vancouverpolice chief Jamie Graham thanking him for loaning Detective Constable Sajjan for the military duty.

He described Harjit Sajjan as “the best single Canadian intelligence asset in [war] theater” whose "hard work, personal bravery and dogged determination undoubtedly saved a multitude of Coalition lives."

The letter, which details Harjit Sajjan’s personal exploits reads like a Bourne Trilogy movie script, noted National Observer.

However, a truly modest Sikh, Harjit Sajjan remains reluctant to talk about his exploits, and is only concerned about deploying Canadian troops out of the harms way.  

It is not just Harjit Sajjan’s bravery, even a photo of his in combat gear, has gone viral in Canada.
