  • Ladakh Travels Far and Fast
    LADAKH TRAVELS FAR AND FAST Sat Paul Sahni In half a century, Ladakh has transformed itself from the medieval era to as modern a life as any in the mountainous regions of India. Surely, this is an incredible achievement, unprecedented and even unimagin- able in the earlier circumstances of this landlocked trans-Himalayan region of India. In this paper, I will try and encapsulate what has happened in Ladakh since Indian independence in August 1947. Independence and partition When India became independent in 1947, the Ladakh region was cut off not only physically from the rest of India but also in every other field of human activity except religion and culture. There was not even an inch of proper road, although there were bridle paths and trade routes that had been in existence for centuries. Caravans of donkeys, horses, camels and yaks laden with precious goods and commodities had traversed the routes year after year for over two millennia. Thousands of Muslims from Central Asia had passed through to undertake the annual Hajj pilgrimage; and Buddhist lamas and scholars had travelled south to Kashmir and beyond, as well as towards Central Tibet in pursuit of knowledge and religious study and also for pilgrimage. The means of communication were old, slow and outmoded. The postal service was still through runners and there was a single telegraph line operated through Morse signals. There were no telephones, no newspapers, no bus service, no electricity, no hospitals except one Moravian Mission doctor, not many schools, no college and no water taps. In the 1940s, Leh was the entrepôt of this part of the world.

  • Insights Into the P–T Evolution Path of Tso Morari Eclogites of the North-Western Himalayas: Constraints on the Geodynamic Evolution of the Region
    Insights into the P–T evolution path of Tso Morari eclogites of the north-western Himalayas: Constraints on the geodynamic evolution of the region Preeti Singh, Ashima Saikia∗, Naresh Chandra Pant and Pramod Kumar Verma∗∗ Department of Geology, University of Delhi, Delhi 110 007, India. ∗Corresponding author. e-mail: [email protected] The present study is on the Ultra High Pressure Metamorphic rocks of the Tso Morari Crystalline Com- plex of the northwestern Himalayas. Five different mineral associations representative of five stages of P–T (pressure–temperature) evolution of these rocks have been established based on metamorphic tex- tures and mineral chemistry. The pre-UHP metamorphic association 1 of Na-Ca-amphibole + epidote ± paragonite ± rutile ± magnetite with T–P of ∼ 500◦C and 10 kbar. This is followed by UHP metamor- phic regime marked by association 2 and association 3. Association 2 (Fe>Mg>Ca-garnet + omphacite + coesite + phengite + rutile ± ilmenite) marks the peak metamorphic conditions of atleast 33 kbar and ∼ 750◦C. Association 3 (Fe>Mg>Ca-garnet + Na-Ca amphibole + phengite ± paragonite ± calcite ± ilmenite ± titanite) yields a P–T condition of ∼28 kbar and 700◦C. The post-UHP metamorphic regime is defined by associations 4 and 5. Association 4 (Fe>Ca>Mg-garnet + Ca-amphibole + plagioclase (An05) + biotite + epidote ± phengite yields a P–T estimate of ∼14 kbar and 800◦C) and association 5 (Chlorite + plagioclase (An05) + quartz + phengite + Ca-amphibole ± epidote ± biotite ± rutile ± titanite ± ilmenite) yields a P–T value of ∼7 kbar and 350◦C. 1.

  • Medicinal Plants of the Trans- Himalayan Cold
    International Journal of Science, Environment ISSN 2278-3687 (O) and Technology, Vol. 9, No 2, 2020, 239 – 253 2277-663X (P) MEDICINAL PLANTS OF THE TRANS- HIMALAYAN COLD DESERT OF LADAKH – A REVIEW Astha Chauhan, Vaneet Jishtu, Leena Thakur and Tsering Dolma Forest Ecology and Climate Change Division, Himalayan Forest Research Institute, Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, INDIA E-mail: [email protected] (Corresponding Author) Abstract: Since time immemorial, plants as medicine have been playing a vital role in the development of virtually all civilization, across the globe. These medicinal plants have been regarded as rich resources of traditional medicines, being used as natural aphrodisiacs, to aid other health disorders, add flavour, and conserve food besides, preventing various kinds of disease and epidemics. The medicinal plant wealth from the cold desert of Ladakh has been the mainstay of healthcare in this remote landscape of the Trans Himalaya. The traditional, amchi system of medicine or the Tibetan medicine system is prevalent in Ladakh and neighbouring areas. This system reveals great amount of traditional knowledge and much scope of consigning novel bio-molecular research. In recent years there has also been a surge in the usage of herbal medicine for healthcare and wellness across the globe. The medicinal flora of Ladakh is facing threats in terms of habitat destruction, unscientific harvest/exploitation of native plants, increased tourism as well as natural disasters. Therefore, it warrants research in the same field and to come up with strategies to propose conservation plans and sustainable utilization practices. Not much work is reported from the cold deserts of Ladakh; however, owing to the current threats faced by the regional flora much current research is obligatory.
