Ablaze in a Blizzard

The war. The Indian Army had the biggest defeat in 1962 and worldly lough on its conduct not because of their incapability but because of poor and stupid political handling of the situation. The death of Pandit jawaharlal nehru released the political hand cuffs of the Army and not only Army was expanded many fold but also excellent training was imbibed to the young ones. The Indian soldiers of World War 1 and 2 had the greatest appreciations of world FIELD MARSHALS and Generals and that breed cannot be so weak in short time. so the Pakisthan's ambitious plan was squarely met by the Indian Army.

Young Ganesan got into the crowed at the central station and moved as destiny dragged him.12 persons travelled in a 4 persons first class cabin and reached Tanakpur a terminal to UP-Tibet border. Very heavy military movements were seen every where. As Ganesan was moving up by miltary convoy enroute he met his commanding officer. The CO told that their camp has been vacated and ordered Ganesan to come back with him. They reached Bareilly, where thousands of military personnels were grouped into military trains and being moved to western border. Ganesan met all his unit personnel and got into the military special train at about 0200hrs. When the train was about to move Ganesan was ordered to get down and stay their itself to gather other rear elements and come after a day or two. As he got down a thundering voice echoed "BHAARATH MATHA KI JAI" and train moved slowly. An emotionally exited Ganesan, tears rolling down stood their with waving hands.
