"The Army Commander was briefed on the operational preparedness and the current situation. The GOC-in-C interacted with troops at the Siachen Base Camp and complimented the tenacious resolve, unstinting commitment of the 'Siachen Warriors' deployed in extreme harsh weather and inhospitable terrain," said Defence Ministry spokesman, Col. Rajesh Kalia.
