There's massive construction with prefab materials going on in Leh to accommodate 30,000 troops or two divisions worth. Would be used for transiting troops after acclimatization as reinforcements to fwd op areas in HAA.Ah! the problem my friends is that they are not too many... otherwise, it is a good source of income in those remote parts where there are no jobs and no useful vocations.. Army pays well including lots of help in terms of food and rations and sometimes clothings..... maybe one odd bottle of Rum as extra incentive.
BRO has to take people from Jharkhand and Orissa as a workforce for road construction..
Ladakh- No water, no sticking soil, No wood, Stones also not available everywhere, the temperature so low that the cement would not stick together ( that is setting problems) - how does Bhoop Singh mark his defence works.. everything has to come from beyond Pathankot.
all shelters and barracks cost four times more .... CGI shelters are useless... lots of Fibre Reinforced Plastic and plywood required
It is a logistics nightmare...
Chinese position is also equally pathetic .....
