Indian Air Force plays a pivotal role in transporting essential supplies to troops deployed at forward posts in Ladakh.
It has also assisted in speedy induction of troops over the past few months.
This joint capability of Army and IAF is more than adequate to sustain the forces which have built up in recent times.
Major General Arvind Kapoor in Ladakh said, "Our logistics infrastructure has smartly built that any unit coming from outside can join the unit here, seamlessly and be effective." "Today, each jawan deputed at the frontline has the state-of-the-art winter clothing and tentage," he added.
