Sana Seblani had only one day to find out as much as she could about UNIFIL's Indian Battalion and an exciting, full day it was. Foot patrol in the remote Shebaa hills, vehicle patrol up to the last Blue Line Barrels, spicy Indian food and Hindu ceremony. Join Sana on her day with Indbatt.
("The Challenge" is a multi-part TV & Web Series featuring 8 Lebanese University graduate students and 16 UNIFIL contingents.)

OLYMPIAN ARMY BOXER RECEIVES VISHISHT SEVA MEDAL Kolkata: Saturday, March 08, 2014 At 23, Naib Subedar Laishram Devendro Singh was the youngest and the only Junior Commissioned Officer (JCO) among the eight army personnel who received the Vishisht Seva Medal (VSM) for 'distinguished service of a high order' at the Investiture Ceremony held at Fort William on Saturday. With a single brass star shining on his shoulder-flap denoting his recently promoted status as a JCO, and with a VSM pinned above his left breast pocket, Devendro looked every bit the star sportsman-soldier a nation would be proud to honour. Soft-spoken and otherwise reticent in demeanour, his explosive fighting skills in the boxing ring is delightful to watch. Devendro, it may be recalled, had lost a hard-fought quarter final bout in the light-flyweight category against Irish boxer Paddy Barnes, in the 2012 Summer Olympics. Inspired by his former national boxing champion sister, Sushila Devi, to take to the sport, Devendro is currently training hard at SAI and is determined to bring home an Olympic Medal in 2016.

Due to two days of continuous snow, an avalanche hit the remote areas of Balsaran in District Kulgam during the early hours today. A large number of persons and their cattles got trapped in the avalanche as their houses got buried under the snow. On receipt of the information regarding avalanche, a rescue team of an RR Unit was immediately rushed to the spot. The team braving the inclement weather & snow conditions reached the spot with great difficulty. After a lot of physical and mental effort, the team managed to extricate and saved precious lives of 07 civilians. In another two separate incidents, rescue teams of army subunits located at Imamsahib and Hathipura in general area Behibagh of District Shopian, evacuated two pregnant ladies on stretchers by walking incessantly for approximately 3 hrs. One of the pregnant ladies delivered a healthy child while second one awaits her bundle of joy.
