I went to Partapur once, it is the last army post before Sia
chin. There’s a museum there that displays, among other things, the dead Indian and Pakistani soldiers uniform , boots, I cards, sometimes even letters found on their bodies. I came out of the museum in tears at the immense human cost of Siachin. Each time I see such feel-proud video, I feel we may be inadvertently glorifying Siachin. My sense of pride is accompanied with an immense sadness. Happy Independence Day folks. May those soldiers get their independence too!
