10 Soldiers were hit by an Avalanche  at  Siachen's Northern Glacier in J & K. The soldier who was buried has less chances of survival. Avalanches and Soldier deaths are common in the Siachen Glacier.

These are the hazards of the job and have to be accepted

Siachen is the world's highest active Battle field contested by India and Pakistan since 1984 when India launched Operation Meghdoot. Since the start of operation India lost 33 officers, 54 JCOs and 78 Jawans.. These statistics show that deaths due to Avalanchis are just a part of the The Job.

Siachen glacier took the life of more than 800 soldiers of Indian army. Most of them died because of the extreme weather condition in this region. The glacier is located in the disputed Kashmir region and is claimed by India and Pakistan.  It is the highest battle ground on earth where India and Pakistan fought intermittently since 1984. 

Working in such extreme weather conditions in the Siachen Glaciers is really a challenging job for Our sentinels, who work day in day out to keep the country Safe and Secure. Despite all the hardships, A Soldier accepts them with a smile and majestically say, " they are a part of their duty.

A great miracle had happened in Siachen Glacier. One of the soldier buried under snow was found alive after 6 days.

Hunumantappa, who hails from Dharwad in Karnataka has always been known to be a very brave person, who never gave up on things according to his family and teachers. He is in a coma now and fighting for his life and I sincerely pray and hope that he pulls through and recovers completely, because we need such brave men amidst a society filled with fakes..

Hanumantha's commitment is exemplary. A brave  soldier to the core. I wish him a speedy recovery.

Job of army is full of risks, location may be hills, deserts of sea. In desert are when temprature crossed 50 degree in summer  soliders perform their duty without any if but. They have limited water and they have not shad for rest. But they do their work with honesty.

Yes they said that day when we join army we accept that our duty is hard one. Not only men, women are also joining BSF and other security forces and doing their duty like men soldiers.

That's what Patriotism is all about. People like these Patriots do anything for the sake of the country. In this process, if they had to lose life, they do it without an iota of hesitation. My Salutes to them. Jai Hind.
