Primer: The world's highest battlefield 

Primer: The world's highest battlefield

It would indeed be a blunder of monumental proportions if we abandoned Siachen. In fact to refer it to as the battle for the Siachen glacier is incorrect as we already have it, it should correctly be referred to as the battle for Saltoro ridge.

One only needs to think of what would happen if Pakistan comes in and grabs strategic positions on the glacier if India abandons it. And to think that the Pakistanis will not even after the perfidy of Kargil would make one the biggest idiot in India!

The question is what does India gain by being on the glacier. One only needs to look at the map to find that out.

Idiots (and peaceniks, they are all the same) like Amberish K Diwanji don't realize what they are proposing.
