Major-General Sir Henry Havelock - London, UK - Specific Veteran Memorials on Waymarking.com

Wikipedia 's entry on Havelock (visit link) informs us about this monument:

"There is a statue of Havelock (by William Behnes) in Trafalgar Square, London. The plaque on the plinth reads: To Major General Sir Henry Havelock KCB and his brave companions in arms during the campaign in India 1857. "Soldiers! Your labours, your privations, your sufferings and your valour, will not be forgotten by a grateful country" H. Havelock. In 2003, there was major controversy when the then mayor of London, Ken Livingstone suggested that the Trafalgar Square statue, together with that of General Charles James Napier, be replaced with "more relevant" figures."

That article also tells us that Havelock (1795-1857) is mostly remembered for his work in India and the recapture of Cawnpore after the rebellion of 1857. Havelock previously served in the First Anglo-Burmese War (1824–1826) and the First Afghan War in 1839.
