Frontlist | An ebook on Ladakh, from historical aspects to current scenario
An e-book focused on the current standoff between India and China in eastern Ladakh was released on the concluding day of the fourth edition of the Military Literature Festival here. Tilted ‘Ladakh—2020’, the book is a collection of 50 selected articles pertaining to the current situation in Ladakh, delving upon historical aspects, operational nuances, intelligence matters, geo-political facets and the lessons learnt. The articles have been authored by officers who have had a hands-on experience of serving in the tough and rugged terrain of Ladakh, which has seen battles, skirmishes and incursions in the past. Standing-in for Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh at the virtual closing ceremony, Punjab finance minister Manpreet Singh Badal said bearing arms for one’s country is the greatest privilege a citizen can have. Stating that over the past few years the military literature festival has succeeded in creating a buzz around Punjab to motivate youngsters to join the armed forces and check the trend of dilution of Punjab’s tradition of military service, Badal exhorted the youth to strive for high ideals and growth.
