Siachen Glacier, Fighting On The Roof Of The World

[ice_man]

so basically we can sit tight on the ground and wait for the enemy! while the enemy can sit and watch our movements! indian operation in Siachen led pakistan to plan kargil along the same lines....however 2 decades had passed since siachen & this meant that AIRFORCE played a pivotal role in the whole proceedings!

india can keep sitting on the top it will cost them 2 times our costs for resupplying itself. Now the question is how much of land in Kilometers does India hold???

Thats not a problem. We can afford it. And I guess your question is rhetorical.

70 km of land

 

[Xeric]

The glacier itself is 75 km long.

Giving us only 5 km is fair

 

[Nalwa]

Actually, its pointless. Should be made into a no-man's land. Kind of a DMZ.

actually i posted what i knew
The Indian army controls all of the 70 kilometres (43 mi) long Siachen Glacier and all of its tributary glaciers, as well as the three main passes of the Saltoro Ridge immediately west of the glacier—Sia La, Bilafond La, and Gyong La—thus holding onto the tactical advantage of high ground.[19][20][21][22]

Siachen matter is a bit cold these days due to war on terrorism, but as kashmir is getting ignited so will everything else be, but few days back diplomatic talks have been restarted, we hope everybody will be sincere there

 

[REHAN NIAZI FALCON]

well we have recaptured the area that we needed to stop advancement of indian troops and to secure KK pass.

India's stand has been to mark the positions where both armies stand , have both parties accept this position & both armies to withdraw.

Pak feels this would be an acceptance of Indian suzerainty of the region hence rejects this.

The stalemate continues.

Wiki doesnt get its fact right.
You cannot even trust it if it says Pakistan had increased its nukes. They keep increasing and decreasing the figures, and the one you posted is Biased.

Who attacked Kashmir in 1947............Pakistanis.
so who should go back from Pak Kashmir .........Pakistanis

ok declare it no mans land , even no body,s land we are happy ........... who is problematic with it ........... Pakistani..



This kind of logic makes no sense.
We cant trust Pakistan any more after kargil.
Only if there is an agreement that occupying Siachen will be breach of sovereignty , India might consider withdrawing troops

Actually it was 1948 after India ignored the fact that muslim majority areas should go to Pakistan, we had no choice but to attack, since India only understands the lanuague of war.

Had the Indians not installed too many Israeli radars in Kashmir, Kargil would not have happened. We do not trust India because of its hipocratric policies.

(01) Vajpayee comes to Lahore and shaked hand with Nawaz Sharif and wants friendship, as soon as he gets back to Delhi he orders the construction of dams in Kashmir

(02) India wants friendship and wants people to people contacts. We start Samjotha Express which is bombed resulting in the deaths of 75 Pakistani citizens and injuring 150+. India blames it on the ISI and plays this snake game. But we know that Col. Prohit was a RAW Agent and was acting on Indian Government's Orders.

Lets talk about trust, do not even get me started on the number of times India tried to harm Pakistan.

Seriously whole world knows about the fact the kargil war main architect Pervez Musharraf and donot give silly reason like radar of israeil every country has right to use any equipment to safeguard its border

DAMS are post-kargil phenomenon used a by pakistan as an another silly excuse. all dams which are begin constructed are according to indus-water treaty

(02) India wants friendship and wants people to people contacts. We start Samjotha Express which is bombed resulting in the deaths of 75 Pakistani citizens and injuring 150+.

This is among the few times that I have read a Pakistani admitting that Pakistan attacked India back in 47 -48 and not ' irregulars ' who voluntarily crossed over.

What has radars to do with Pak misadventure in kargil ???

India constructs Dams in ts own territory and within the ambit of Indus water treaty.
