Talk:Yaldor Sub Sector

Terrain was difficult!
The article says "the terrain was so difficult that the Indian Army didn't expect it". That is a joke. Look at this terrain map, just north of the border. There is a long Ganoks Nala, running right next to the border, with five wide valley leading to the border (the so-called "Shangruti complex").

Zoom into this pond in the middle of the valley, switch to a sattelite view, and notice the military camp there, with a road leading all the way to the top of the valley. It would have taken the Pakistan Army years to build all this infrastructure, while the Indian Army was napping. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 17:44, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi Kautilya3 talk please find the link that clearly states that if you type yaldor here you may find it. Also i am seriously giving it a thought of changing the name to yaldor sub sector as you suggested, but sometime later.
 * The source says:
 * This is talking about the "three features" (unspecified), for which access was supposedly difficult from the Pakistani side. But it doesn't say anything about the entire Yaldor sector.
 * For example, here is a view of the Shangruti Top, viewed from Baltistan side. From the Indian side one could just walk along the ridge line to get to it, but the Pakistanis would have to scale the hill if they wanted to get to the top. This doesn't say anything about how easy it is to cross the Line of Control (which is quite clear from the satellite map). -- Kautilya3 (talk) 19:25, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
