In Siachen, the temperature in the freezing temperature goes down to minus 50 degree Celsius. India's closest post from Siachen base camp is 'Indira Col' and it takes 20 to 22 days for soldiers to reach there. From past few days, the weather has totally changed in entire northern India and thus giving rise to cold. Heavy snowfall in parts of Jammu and Kashmir still going on.
Recently, 5 youths had disappeared due to avalanches in the Gure Sector. Later, the body of 3 soldiers was recovered. Even before this, in the beginning of 2017, 15 jawans were martyred in the Gure Sector due to avalanches.
So, in such situations it becomes hard to imagine the situation of Indian army's jawans who serve the nation round the clock in difficult conditions.
