Soldiers in Siachen

Hi,

There are around 4000 soldiers placed in Siachen , which is the border of India and Pakistan at Kashmir. It is also called the highest battlefield on earth situated at the height two-third of Mt. Everest. These soldiers stay there for 3 months at a stretch overcoming extreme weather conditions and temperature at freezing -50 to -60 degrees centigrade.

We are planning to send postcards to the soldiers in Siachen this Republic Dayinorder to express our gratitude to our soldiers for protecting our land despite difficulties and keeping us secure. It is an effort on our part to provide an opportunity to all to express their message for the unsung heroes in Siachen.

Also, for all who cannot reach us for the postcards, please do post your message. We will take utmost care in putting your message in the postcard.

Jai Hind
