[acid rain]

u are an indian! dont try to be Pakistani @Horus. @Imran Khan

Duh...if he was...he wouldn't be making it so obvious. It was pakistanis - retired officers who exposed the kargil fiasco.

Are you telling us the story of Lakshya. ?

I had a discussion with one soldier involved in Kargil operation. He told that thwy climbed to one peak in night and hid behind the stones during the day time and pakistani soldiers could not locate them till evening. In evening, they got an idea of Indian presence and firing started. They captured the peak after fierce gun battle.

Two from my family and one who is a very close family friend. My uncle who was an AA pilot would say that the helicopter would get "caked" in blood ferrying the wounded back and forth.

where did they stationed any particular peak?

You do know that there is another route available through Himachal Pradesh into Ladakh to resupply Siachen? Do you really think we would have let our troops starve to death in Siachen? Worst case scenario the IAF would have opened up an Air Bridge. And dont you think we would have opened up other fronts to ease the pressure like we did in 1965. It is your PM who went to Clinton to ask the US for an intervention. Please read this story

If your soldiers were getting supplies and everything, why they were committing suicides then ?

Here's an interesting video of captured Pakistani soldiers from the Kargil War. These are beaten and demoralised men, but it seems the Indian Army has treated them well enough. What they have to say about their role in the war is interesting.

I don't wanna make fun of these people, but that one was funny:

you are wrong, Kashmir will always be a part of India for various reasons

1)strategic/military --- as the India U.S relation is strong Kashmir could play a major role in maintaining power balance but it also act as a imp front for Indian army in time of war as various Pakistani cities is near to Kashmir.

2)economic---natural resources,tourism,electricity etc in other words we control your jugular veins(rivers) so in a war we don't have to fire a bullet as we control your rivers,millions of people in Pakistan would be affected by Floods and Draught without even fire a bullet.

3)yes in Kargil we made mistakes and i think that wad the last time when Pakistan could have got the Kashmir as our economy is not strong.But now we will goin to become $5 trillion economy by 2025 and a strong military power.

4)i hope you don't want to mention nukes for Kashmir unless you are on a suicide mission.

What is Lakshya?

I am telling a story of one of the security personnel I met (Ex Army) in my ex company.

I have met one fellow who was involved in Operation in siachin glassier also. He told that Pakistani attack was unexpected. We manage to survive because of Gun support only.

What a Captain had told me in 1999 (during Kargil war) is that only air drop supply was open at that time to Siachen and all ground routes were closed, he told me back then that IA was desperate to open ground route therefore they used massive fire power from air & land to open route but PA make life very difficult for any one who try to take ground route for traveling and ISI was at its best, providing real time critical info from inside IOK.

Supply line to Siachen was never cut off during the Kargil conflict.
LeH(Ladakh) is the main logistical base for Siachen.

Leh inturn get it supplies from Chandigarh(Ambala Cantonment)

Now there are two routes from Ambala to LeH

1. NH1 D via Kargil : this route was temporarily under Pakistani artillery fire, during a portion of the Kargil conflict..that too during the day time only. At night army truck convoys were not visible Pakistani arty observers.

2. Manali Leh Highway: It was secondary supply route to Leh, was sparingly used during the Kargil war, as supplies at Siachen never dropped to dangerously low levels and the supply lines via NH1 were quickly restored.
