World's Highest Battle site, Siachen Glacier, gets its first Mobile tower

At the highest battleground in the world, Siachen Glacier, a mobile tower has been set up for the first time. The news was announced on X by the Indian Army's Fire and Fury Corps. The Indian Army and Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) worked together to set up this tower. Anand Mahindra, an industrialist, and Devusinh Chauhan, a minister, both tweeted on X to applaud the notable developments.

"#Siachen Warriors in collaboration with BSNL established first ever BSNL BTS at forward posts of the highest battlefield on 06 October to extend mobile communication for the soldiers deployed at more than 15,500 feet," the official handle of Fire and Fury Corps posted.

Devusinh Chauhan, Union State Minister for Communications, also posted about this remarkable achievement on X.

He tweeted, "BSNL with Siachen Warriors installs first-ever mobile tower at Siachen Glacier. Now our heroes can talk to their near and dear ones at their convenience. Kudos to @BSNLCorporate and #SiachenWarriors."

Anand Mahindra also posted how this “seemingly small event in our turbulent world” is in fact a “big news.” He wrote, “These are photos shared by @devusinh of the first ever mobile tower installed in Siachen! A seemingly small event in our turbulent world. But it means our Jawans who put their lives on the line every single day on the world’s highest battlefield to defend us are now strongly connected to their families. For them, this device is as important as the Vikram Lander. To me, this is really BIG news.”
