Ladakh's New Defence Infrastructure: Enhancing Combat Readiness

India has approved 11 critical defence projects in Ladakh to boost combat readiness along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China. These projects include setting up infantry battalion camps, artillery regiment posts, mobile telecommunications towers, and formation ammunition storage facilities. The aim is to enhance the Army's preparedness in the high-altitude region, especially after the Galwan clash in 2020. The projects will be constructed within the Changthang High Altitude Cold Desert Wildlife Sanctuary and the Karakoram-Nubra-Shyok Wildlife Sanctuary. The National Board for Wildlife (NBWL) has set conditions to minimize environmental impacts, ensuring the protection of rare wildlife like snow leopards and Tibetan antelopes.
