Lt Gen Singh and Lt Gen Dhillon visited the troops just a day after four Indian Army soldiers got martyred after an avalanche hit an eight-member team of Army personnel in northern Siachen Glacier on Monday (November 18).

The Army team was on a patrol when the avalanche hit them at an altitude of 19,000 feet around 3:30 pm. However, four soldiers and two civilian porters died after being trapped in the avalanche.
