"Do We as Citizens of India know where is Sumbar, Dagnari, Banj, Bajon & Malpatti?? These villages are located in the backward, remote and higher reaches of Ramban District in Jammu and Kashmir," PRO (Defence) Udhampur said in a tweet.
"At present, the local Awam residing in these areas are deprived of basic facilities due to remoteness of location & rugged terrain. Lack of road connectivity makes it difficult for the Awam to make their ends meet," the PRO tweeted.
It further tweeted while attaching the picture of Jawans carrying ration and medical kits, "Can you identify these troops who are physically carrying the Ration & Medical kits up the higher reaches for the Awam ignoring the odds presented by the inhospitable terrain?"
