The Battle of Rezang La: A Historic Moment of Bravery


On November 18, 1962, in the freezing heights of Ladakh, 120 soldiers of Charlie Company stood firm against an overwhelming Chinese force of over 3,000 troops. Despite enduring severe weather and being vastly outnumbered, they fought with unwavering determination, defending India's borders until the very last man.

The battle's significance lies not only in the tactical defense of the Rezang La pass but also in its enduring symbol of courage, sacrifice, and heroism. Major Shaitan Singh, who led the soldiers, was posthumously awarded the Param Vir Chakra (PVC), India's highest military honor, for his exceptional leadership and bravery.
