Early Times Report

Poonch, Apr 27: In a significant humanitarian initiative, the Indian Army’s Battalion under the aegis of Romeo Force distributed sleeping bags and mosquito nets to members of the Gujjar and Bakkarwal communities at Satharban in Poonch district.
As these nomadic groups prepare for their annual migration to high-altitude summer Dhoks, such as Hill Dhoks, Pathari Dhoks, and Dholewali Dhoks in the Pir Panjal ranges, the distributed items will provide vital comfort and protection against harsh weather conditions and insect-borne diseases during their stay in these remote and elevated locations.
This thoughtful initiative is part of the Army’s broader strategy of holistic engagement and nation-building. By addressing the basic needs of these vulnerable populations, the Army not only seeks to alleviate hardships but also to build resilience and prevent the influence of radical elements.
The local community warmly welcomed the gesture, expressing heartfelt gratitude for the Army’s continuous support and welfare efforts beyond its traditional security role. Such initiatives further strengthen the enduring bond between the Indian Army and local communities, promoting trust, social harmony, and inclusive development in the region.
