Master Plan of Kargil TOWN PLANNING ORGANISATION, KASHMIR MASTER PLAN OF KARGIL DRAFT MASTER PLAN REPORT Feedback Infra Pvt Ltd & BE Consultants Town Planning Organisation, Srinagar KARGIL MASTER PLAN Draft Report Preface Cities have become concentrates of intelligence and demand large investments for their development. Large resources are spent on the development of various urban settlements but the condition of these towns continues to deteriorate because of piecemeal nature of expenditure and lack of definitive development schemes. Adhoc efforts neither result in better environment nor strengthen the economic base. Even having a Master Plan document in place, there are still distortions in land development. In view of this, Town Planning Organisation, Srinagar has undertaken the preparation of Master Plan for Kargil Town, which envisages all encompassing development at an intensive detailed level land use plan. The horizon year conceived for the Plan is 2032. Master Plans are expected to give impetus to the development envisaged in the Plan by laying policies incoherent with socio-economic scenario. Kargil is considered as major transit centre of region, endowed with snow lofted mountain ranges and scenic beauty. Efforts are being meticulously taken to conserve this USP of the town with tackling the pressure of burgeoning expansion. In the first phase, the Master Plans of district headquarters have been taken up which will be followed up by Master Plans of other small and medium towns. The Government has also decided to outsource few Master Plans; however, the Master Plan for Kargil, which has the potential of becoming Class II town in near future; this task has been entrusted to M/s Feedback Infra Private Limited, Gurgaon. The studies involved in the preparation of Master Plan concerns with the areas crucial to planning and development of the region. The Plan brings to notice the local issues prevailing in the region and conceive the future accordingly to enhance the implementation of the Plan in perceptible terms. In this Master Plan, the development proposals have been framed after a detailed study and analysis of the crucial issues related to economic development, infrastructure, transportation, housing, environment and sustainability. This comprehensive effort has established a framework for physical and socio-economic development and upliftment of the region– Its constituent elements and the development policy mechanism by which these goals can be achieved. At this juncture, the main purpose for Feedback Infra Private Ltd. in putting this document is to solicit critical comments and suggestions to achieve greater participation, meaningfulness and make the Master Plan for Kargil (2032) acceptable to stakeholders who have a role to play in its development and implementable for the Local Authority.

The distribution of Bufotes latastii, a diploid green toad species, is analyzed based on field observations and literature data. 74 localities are known, although 7 ones should be confirmed. The range of B. latastii is confined to northern Pakistan, Kashmir Valley and western Ladakh in India. All records of “green toads” (“Bufo viridis”) beyond this region belong to other species, both to green toads of the genus Bufotes or to toads of the genus Duttaphrynus. B. latastii is endemic to the Western Himalaya. Its allopatric range lies between those of bisexual triploid green toads in the west and in the east. B. latastii was found at altitudes from 780 to 3200 m above sea level. Environmental niche modelling was applied to predict the potential distribution range of the species. Altitude was the variable with the highest percent contribution for the explanation of the species distribution (36 %). urn:lSid:zOobank.Org:pub:0C76EE11-5D11-4FAB-9FA9-918959833BA5 INTRODUCTION Bufotes latastii (fig. 1) iS a relatively cOmmOn green toad species which spreads in KaShmir Valley, Ladakh and adjacent regiOnS Of nOrthern India and PakiStan.

  • Kargil Operation 1999
    KARGIL OPERATION 1999 The Kargil War, also known as the Kargil conflict was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil district of Kashmir and elsewhere along the Line of Control (LOC). In India, the conflict is also referred to as Operation Vijay which was the name of the Indian operation to clear the Kargil sector.The war is the most recent example of high-altitude warfare in mountainous terrain, and as such posed significant logistical problems for the combating sides.The cause of the war was the infiltration of Pakistani soldiers disguised as Kashmiri militants into positions on the Indian side of the LOC which serves as the border between the two states. During the initial stages of the war, Pakistan blamed the fighting entirely on independent Kashmiri insurgents, but documents left behind by casualties and later statements by Pakistan's Prime Minister and Chief of Army Staff showed involvement of Pakistani paramilitary forces led by General Ashraf Rashid. The Indian Army, later supported by the Indian Air Force, recaptured a majority of the positions on the Indian side of the LOC infiltrated by the Pakistani troops and militants. Facing international diplomatic opposition, the Pakistani forces withdrew from the remaining Indian positions along the LOC. There were three major phases to the Kargil War. First, Pakistan infiltrated forces into the Indian-controlled section of Kashmir and occupied strategic locations enabling it to bring NH1 within range of its artillery fire. The next stage consisted of India discovering the infiltration and mobilising forces to respond to it.
