Incident Of Siachen and Salala
The Siachen incident has not only highlighted the need to revisit troop
deployment that pose a greater threat to them than the enemy does – for
both countries – but at the same time reveals to us the reality that
despite such a grave threat they have never uttered a single word of
complaint. In fact most of them have opted for Siachen voluntarily. The
probability of survivors is becoming remote as time passes by without
any tangible rescue work done in the catastrophe hit area.
The severity of weather conditions has made rescue work almost
impossible and those too who are involved in rescue operations face
similar danger. If an avalanche, where hundreds of soldiers of the
Pakistan army had to lose their precious lives, is what it takes for the
administration and public to realize what the soldiers undergo during
their duties, then the hardships endured by all those trapped under
layers of hard frozen ice will surely pay off.
It goes a long way to show under what conditions a soldier of the Pakistan army is operates either defending borders or fighting the various enemies, harsh weather and natural calamities included.
Ironic are not the conditions under which they work, but the fact that they face relentless criticism from fellow countrymen that is enough reason to dampen ones morale.

Life Of a Siachen Soldiers
The follies of a few at the highest order cannot be generalized upon
all ranks and can certainly not wipe away the sacrifices they have made
for the motherland and the people of this nation. The relentless
support of the nation is what they need to remain motivated and
encouraged so that they may keep defending the country.
We can never repay their efforts but at least we can try to stand by them by honouring their commitment and hard work instead of waiting for another Siachen or Salala to realise that we are indeed fortunate to have amongst us men of great stature who attain divinity by their actions.
They are the people who have ensured the existence of the country by offering the motherland their own.
