Incastonate tra i piedi della possente catena del Karakorum e i contrafforti dell’altopiano dell’Himalaya, le terre basse del Kashmir erano una sorta di oasi protetta, un approdo di gioia, per le carovane provenienti dai passaggi faticosi tra le enormi catene montagnose. Da Shrinagar verso oriente si penetra nelle aride vallate d’alta quota, del Suru e dello Zanskar affluenti dell’Indo, punteggiate da piccoli e dimenticati monasteri buddisti, fino a raggiungere Leh, la capitale del Ladakh.

It was yet another exciting Annual Seminar held at the Air India Auditorium, Nariman Point Mumbai. The seminar was kicked off on 6 February 03 – with the Kaivan Mistry Memorial Lecture by Pat Morrow on his ‘Quest for the Seven and a Half Summits’. As another first the seminar was an Audio Visual Presentation without Pat! The bureaucratic tangles had sent Pat back from the immigration counter of New Delhi Immigration authorities for reasons best known to them ! The well documented AV presentation made Pat come alive in the auditorium ! Pat is a Canadian photographer and mountain climber who was the first person in the world to climb the highest peaks of seven Continents: McKinley in North America, Aconcagua in South America, Everest in Asia, Elbrus in Europe, Kilimanjaro in Africa, Vinson Massif in Antarctica, and Puncak Jaya in Indonesia. This hour- long presentation described how Pat found the resources to help him reach and climb these peaks. Through over an hour that went past like a flash he took the audience through these summits and how he climbed them in different parts of the world.

Demilitarization of Siachen Glacier and Its Implications on the Defence Budget of Pakistan
Journal of Politics and International Studies Vol. 2, No. 1, January –June 2016, pp. 01– 12 Demilitarization of Siachen Glacier and Its Implications on the Defence Budget of Pakistan Sanam Ahmed Khawaja PhD Scholar Department of Political Science, University of the Punjab, Lahore ABSTRACT This research paper focuses on demilitarization of Siachen Glacier and its implications on the defence budget of Pakistan. The government of India and Pakistan are hiking the defence budget to an extreme and in particular for Siachen that consequently it reveals that the glacier of Siachen retain massive geo- strategic significance for both the states. The data has been collected from primary and secondary sources. Moreover theory of disarmament has been adopted by the researcher in relation to Siachen conflict. An interview was conducted from military personnel to get aware of military’s stance with reference to Siachen Glacier. Thus it has been concluded that mutually both the states ought to look for an amicable solution as regard to glacier’s demilitarization furthermore generate a balance between defence and other main sectors so they might not face any negligence. Keywords: Budget of Pakistan, Siachen Glacier, Demilitarization Introduction Geographical Location of the Glacier Siachen Glacier said to be as the “world’s highest battlefield” is ranked as the second longest non- polar glacier after the Fedchenko Glacier in the Pamir which is 77km long. The 70km long glacier of Siachen is located in the Eastern Karakoram Range and width of it lies in between 2 to 8 km and total area is less than 1,000sq km.

OF the mountain regions of High Asia which are politically acces- sible to the ordinary traveller, there is none' concerning which detailed information is more scanty than the eastern section of the great Kara- koram range. Between Younghusband's MIuztagh pass andc the Kara- koram pass on the Leh-Yarkand trade-route, a distance of 100 miles as the crow flies, we have no record of any passage across the main axis of elevation having ever been effected by a European.

East Karakoram and the Siachen Glacier
EAST KARAKORAM AND THE SIACHEN GLACIER - THE LAND OF RUBBLE AND ROSES To a normal man, any high place is an invitation. Of course, not all men can become mountaineers. And though the calculating and practical man of the world has little use for the exploits of the mountaineer, the world owes little to its practical men, whereas great is its debt to its adventurers. G K, Canadian Alpine Journal, 1928 As one stands on Khardung La in Ladakh, at 5,602 m one of the highest motorable pass in the world, the view in all directions is stupendous. At its foot, the river Shyok, flowing from the east meets the Nubra river from the north, near Khalsar. It then makes its way to the west, merging with the Indus near Skardu. Rising between these two river valleys of the Nubra and the Shyok, and in the area to the east are the mountains of East Karakoram. The high peaks of the Saser Kangri group are seen on the horizon, and to the east are the relatively unknown summits of the Arganglas area, first explored as recently as 2001 by an international team that ascended the Yamandaka (6,218 m) and visited the Arganglas, Rassa and Yah glaciers in the Arganglas valley, proving that exploration in the real sense of the word is still possible in the Indian Himalaya. This forbidding land with its harsh winters, flooding rivers, deep valleys and rough tracks, is one of the northernmost areas of the country. Situated on the eastern tip of this area is the Karakoram pass.

As announced in the previous issue of Ladakh Studies, the continuing difficult situation in Kargil forced a shift of venue to Leh. Details regarding the conference, as far as they are available at this time, are provided elsewhere in this issue. Most importantly, however, members based outside of Ladakh should begin making their travel arrangements in good time. The colloquium will be held at the very end of August, just prior to the Ladakh Festival, and this means that there will be many other people trying to get in and out of Leh.

The Eastern Karakoram
33 The Eastern Karakoram Harish Kapadia Plates 2-10 The early explorers knew no boundaries except those of mountain ranges but present day mountaineers and explorers have to respect political boundaries and territorial regulations. Only since 1984 have all the ranges of the E Karakoram been opened to climbers by the Indian Government. At first while planning for the Siachen Indo-British Expedition 1985 to the Terong valley, one felt that the area was not frequented, remote; that information was scarce and approach difficult. However, upon a little research it was found that more than 40 parties had visited the area. Information and various references were scattered over a large number of books and journals. The Karakoram has many opportunities for climbing and exploration and it is bound to receive many mountaineering parties in the future. In early days, caravans from Srinagar to the Siachen snout took nearly 50 days; now it would be but five! The E Karakoram consists of the Siachen Muztagh, the Rimo Muztagh, and the Saser Muztagh as a sub-group of the Great Karakoram. I All these groups consist of various sub-groups and peaks as classified in the Karakoram Conference report of 1936. Out of these the Siachen Muztagh was explored thoroughly, while the Rimo Muztagh and Saser Muztagh received a few parties. The Siachen Muztagh The peaks surrounding the Siachen glacier form this group. In 1821, W Moorcroft passed near its snout and first acknowledged its existence. 2 In 1835 GT Vigne approached it from the west trying to reach the Bilafond la, but he never guessed the existence of such a large glacier across the divide.
