Siachen or area surrounding Siachen is nothing but snow (whether it is peaks/crevacs/passes. FOr the great Indian goverment this place is of no value. Remember Words of Nehru when china captured Ladakh he said " So what it is a desert and produces nothing". This is what is the attitude of Politician towards MAinland and who cares how many died fighting and one figures which i think will always remain disputed. There are thousands who died of inclement weather/snowbite/diseases and accidents. I am not at all surprized to see congress goverment attitude towards Siachen and Pakistan.But you cant blame this goverment. In India we have puppet PM as head of goverment and in Pakistan they have Puppet master president as head of goverment. With Pratibha Patil taking over as president it will be just an icing on the cake. God bless this nation. Soldiers like Lt. Pande and Capt Bana Singh will keep scrificing their life for the nation and these coward lot of politicians will never understand the sufferings/miseries of soldiers and their families.
