His courageous wife Bhavna Dwivedi and daughter Diksha reached the National War Memorial and participated in the Retreat Ceremony and paid tribute to their father for his valor.

Martyr Major Chandrabhushan Dwivedi, a resident of Chandiha village of Puranhiya block of Shivhar district, born on 2 January 1961, defeated the enemies in the Kargil war. At that time, he was serving as the Deputy Command Officer of the 315 Field Regiment. And was promoted to the rank of Colonel.

A martyr's memorial site has been built near the native village in the name of martyr Major Chandra Dwivedi. There is also a Kargil Chowk near the bus stand in Sitamarhi. The martyr's memorial site is in a dilapidated state due to lack of attention from the government and administration on the beautification and access path. There is a need to beautify and organize the martyr's memorial, only then we can pay true tribute to the martyrs.
