**Munsyari, Uttarakhand:** An Indian soldier, Anil Ram, has been rescued after being trapped under snow for three days during a patrol along the India-China border. Ram, a resident of Bihar’s Buxar, was part of an Indo-Tibetan Border Police team deployed for border patrol between Munsyari and Milam.
On Thursday, Ram and his porter, Devendra Singh, lost their way due to heavy snowfall. They took shelter in a cave, 84 kilometers from Munsyari, and spent the night amidst the snow.
A rescue team immediately launched a search operation, facing challenging conditions. After 36 hours of relentless searching, the team finally located the pair on the third day.
Both Ram and Singh were rescued from the cave and are currently undergoing treatment at an army hospital in Uttarakhand. Ram’s family expressed relief at his safe return.
Sub-divisional magistrate Shreshth Gunsola praised the rescue team’s efforts, highlighting their ability to navigate through four feet of snow to locate the missing individuals.
