One third of the lake is in India while the remaining two thirds lies in Tibet, which is controlled by China. Majority of the streams which fill the lake are located on the Tibetan side. Pangong Tso is about five hours drive from Leh in Ladakh region of Jammu & Kashmir. The route passes through beautiful Ladakh countryside, over Chang La, the third highest motorable mountain pass (5289 m) in the world. The first glimpse of the serene, bright blue waters and rocky lakeshore remains etched in the memory of tourists. There is a narrow ramp-like formation of land running into the lake which is also a favorite with tourists. During winter the lake freezes completely, despite being saline water. The salt water lake does not support vegetation or aquatic life except for some small crustaceans. However, there are lots of water birds. The lake acts as an important breeding ground for a large variety of migratory birds like Brahmani Ducks, are black necked cranes and Seagulls. One can also spot Ladakhi Marmots, the rodent-like creatures which can grow up to the size of a small dog. Pangong Tso lies on the Sino-Indian Line of Actual Control and hence requires an Inner Line Permit. Most of the lake is in Chinese-controlled territory. Owing to Pangong’s proximity to the border, tourists are only allowed to visit the lake upto the Spangmik village. For the hardcore adventure lovers, there is a camping site on the shore of Pangong. But do remember that the weather tends to get harsh after dusk. The place is a photographers’ delight and camping is the only option if you wish to see the sunset and the sunrise. The place is under consideration for inclusion in Ramsar Convention for the conservation of wetlands. When it happens, Pangong Tso will be the first trans-boundary wetland in South Asia under the convention. The lake has become a star attraction after being featured in the Rajkumar Hirani’s blockbuster 3 idiots. On October 20, 1962, Pangong Tso saw military action during the Sino-Indian border conflict. Pangong Tso is still a delicate border point along the Line of Actual Control and for security reasons Contents Page No. Foreword 1 Preface 3 Acknowledgements 4 History and Scope of the District Census Handbook 6 Brief History of the District 7 Analytical Note 9- (i) Physical Features 10 (a) Location and size, (b) physiography, (c) Drainage, (d) Climate 11-32 (ii) Census Concepts 33-41 (iii) Non-Census concepts 42-55 (iv) 2011 Census findings 56 (a) Distribution of population in rural-urban areas, 56 (b) size class and status of towns, Population Growth, Density and Sex Ratio, Work 57-59 participation rate, Literacy, Religion, Availability of University education in the District, (c) Mother

  • Ethnobotany of Ladakh (India) Plants Used in Health Care
    T. Ethnobivl, 8(2);185-194 Winter 1988 ETHNOBOTANY OF LADAKH (INDIA) PLANTS USED IN HEALTH CARE G. M. BUTH and IRSHAD A. NAVCHOO Department of Botany University of Kashmir Srinagar 190006 India ABSTRACf.-This paper puts on record the ethnobotanical information of some plants used by inhabitants of Ladakh (India) for medicine, A comparison of the uses of these plants in Ladakh and other parts of India reveal that 21 species have varied uses while 19 species are not reported used. INTRODUCTION Ladakh (elev. 3000-59G(}m), the northernmost part of India is one of the most elevated regions of the world with habitation up to 55(}(}m. The general aspect is of barren topography. The climate is extremely dry with scanty rainfall and very little snowfall (Kachroo et al. 1976). The region is traditionally rich in ethnic folklore and has a distinct culture as yet undisturbed by external influences. The majority of the population is Buddhist and follow their own system of medicine, which has been in vogue for centuries and is extensively practiced. It offers interesting insight into an ancient medical profession. The system of medicine is the"Amchi system" (Tibetan system) and the practi­ tioner, an"Amchi." The system has something in common with the "Unani" (Greek) and"Ayurvedic" (Indian) system of medicine. Unani is the traditional system which originated in the middle east and was followed and developed in the Muslim world; whereas the Ayurvedic system is that followed by Hindus since Rig vedic times. Both are still practiced in India. Though all the three systems make USe of herbs (fresh and dry), minerals, animal products, etc., the Amchi system, having evolved in its special environment, has its own characteristics.

  • Gompa, Forteresse De La
    LADAKH GOMPA FORTERESSE DE LA FOI Michel Cavalier / 06 43 38 10 11 L’apparence massive surprend le visiteur quand il voit pour la première fois un gompa (monastère). Il est vrai que l’édifice ressemble bien plus à une forteresse médiévale, qu’à un monastère, comme on se l’imagine dans le monde Occidental. Et comme l’illustre aussi, l’appellation dzong qui signifie forteresse en tibétain, attribué a de nombreuses gompa du Tibet, du Népal et du Bhoutan. Bastion de la tradition bouddhique, les gompas sont érigées dans des paysages grandioses aux dimensions gigantesques. Souvent construites dans un lieu isolé, au sommet d’une haute colline où battit au flanc de falaise escarpé. L’imposante enceinte qui surplombe les plaines agricoles et les villages, est organisé autour d’une ou plusieurs salles de culte. Situé au cœur des montagnes entre 3 500 m et 7 500 m d’altitude, le Ladakh est la région de l’Himalaya qui compte la plus grande concentration de gompa. Un territoire au carrefour des anciennes caravanes venu d’Asie centrale et du Tibet, à l’extrême Nord de l’État Indien du Jammu & Cachemire. Le gompa est à la fois un centre d’étude et de contemplation. Par sa dimension et sa position dominante, il symbolise la fonction d’édifice cultuel et assure l’essentiel de la transmission orale et écrit. De la même manière qu’il existe, plusieurs doctrines au sein du bouddhisme tibétain, chaque monastère est apparenté à l’un des quatre grands ordres religieux: Kagyupa, Sakyapa, Gelugpa et Nyingmapa, plus généralement connu sous l’ordre des Bonnets rouges et celui des Bonnets jaunes.

  • The Borderlands and Borders of the Indian Subcontinent, New Delhi: Aryan Books International, 2018, Pp 232
    Book Discussion Dilip K Chakrabarti: The Borderlands and Borders of the Indian Subcontinent, New Delhi: Aryan Books International, 2018, pp 232 Understanding Indian Borderlands Dilip K Chakrabarti he Indian subcontinent shares borders with Iran, Afghanistan, the plateau of Tibet Tand Myanmar. The sub-continent’s influence extends beyond these borders, creating distinct ‘borderlands’ which are basically geographical, political, economic and religious interaction zones. It is these ‘borderlands’ which historically constitute the subcontinent’s ‘area of influence’ and underlines its civilizational role in the Asian landmass. A clear understanding of this civilizational role may be useful in strengthening India’s perception of her own geo-strategic position. Iran One may begin with Iran at the western limit of these borderland. There are two main mountain ranges in Iran : the Zagros which separates Iran from Iraq and has to its south the plain of Khuzestan giving access to south Iraq ; and the Elburz which separates the inland Iran from the Caspian belt, Turkmenistan and (to a limited extent , Azerbaijan). The Caspian shores form a well-wooded verdant belt which poses a strong contrast to the dry Iranian plateau. There are two deserts inside the Iranian plateau -- dasht-i-lut and dasht-i-kevir, which do not encourage human habitation. The population concentration of Iran is along the margins of the mountain belt and also in Khuzestan. The following facts are noteworthy. The eastern rim of Iran carries an imprint of the subcontinent. There is a ready access to Iranian Baluchistan through the Kej valley in Pakistani Baluchistan. At its eastern edge this valley leads both to lower Sindh and Kalat.
