Eighteen days after his retirement in October last year, the former army officer started cycling from Ambala Cantonment travelling throughout the country in memory of 21,000 fallen soldiers since Independence by cycling two minutes for each of them.
"This is my symbolic homage to my brethren who didn't have the privilege of retiring as I did since they made the supreme sacrifice before that," he said.
Jha will be concluding his journey at the Amar Jawan Jyoti at India Gate here tomorrow and lay a wreath to pay homage to his fallen comrades.
Commissioned in the 11th Jammu and Kashmir Light Infantry, Jha is not new to adventure.
He has scaled Mt Kilimanjaro at the age of 54 and learnt para-gliding at 56.
