Summary/Abstract

The incidents in the Depsang Plain, near the Karakoram Pass in April or more recently, in Chumar in South Ladakh, are the continuance of Nehru's blind spot for China. There is today a huge difference of 'perception' on the location of the Line of Actual Control which over the years has been moving towards the South and the West. The 1959 LAC was indeed far more advantageous for India than the present LAC.

Kohli, Harish	Journal Article
	0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)

Summary/Abstract

In 1995, commanders at several levels claimed that it was not only difficult but also extremely dangerous to cross the high passes of the Himalaya in deep winter. The sceptics were proved wrong when an eight-member Ski Himalaya Expedition, with two officers, the author and the then Lieutenant Colonel (later Brigadier) Krishan Kumar traversed in the deep winter from the Karakoram Pass in Ladakh to Lipu Lekh, where Uttarakhand meets Nepal. This is a short narration of that epic expedition. For ease of narration it is in the First Person. At the end some recommendations are given.
