Ladakh (Jammu and Kashmir), Jan 26 (ANI): While the 69th Republic Day was being celebrated with great zeal across the nation, soldiers of the Indo Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) celebrated the occasion by unfurling the national flag at 18,000-feet in bone-chilling cold of minus 30 degrees in Jammu and Kashmir’s Ladakh. The ITBP troops also called ‘Himveers’ perform their operational duties and routine training in the bone chilling cold. The Himveers stay along the Ladakh borders throughout the year. Around 5,000 ITBP troops are posted on high altitudes and most of them are deployed in areas above 10,000 feet.
