Tiger Hills - Marathi Translation

टायगर हिलचे शिखर सभोवतालच्या इतर पर्वतशिखरांपेक्षा भव्य दिसते. हे शिखर श्रीनगर-कारगिल-लेह महामार्गाच्या उत्तरेस सुमारे १० किलोमीटर अंतरावर आहे. महामार्गाच्या काही भागात या पर्वताच्या शिखरावर असलेले शत्रूचे वर्चस्व दिसत होते. टोलोलिंग आणि त्याच्या आसपासच्या डोंगरांचा पुन्हा कब्जा मिळवल्यानंतर शत्रूचे येथील अस्तित्व समूळ नष्ट करणे हे प्राधान्याचे काम बनले होते. प्रसार माध्यमांनी शत्रूच्या या आक्रमणाला राष्ट्रीय आव्हान म्हणून लोकांपुढे मांडले होते.

    ब्रिगेडियर एम.पी.एस. बाजवा, कमांडर १९२ माउंटन ब्रिगेड यांनी टायगर हिलवर ताबा मिळवण्याची मोहीम १८ ग्रेनेडीयर व तिथल्या तळावर अगोदरच तैनात असलेल्या ८ शिखांच्या तुकडीवर सोपवली. या दोन्ही युनिट्सला मोठा तोपखाना, अभियांत्रिकी आणि इतर लढाऊ सामग्री असलेल्या हाय अल्टिट्यूड वॉरफेयर स्कूलच्या प्रशिक्षित  टीमने मदत केली. जून १९९९ च्या शेवटच्या आठवड्यात, १८ ग्रेनेडियर्सने शत्रूच्या बचावाची व्याप्ती मर्यादित करण्यासाठी आणि हल्ल्यासाठी योग्य मार्ग शोधले. एकाचवेळी बहु-दिशात्मक प्राणघातक हल्ला ही सर्वोत्तम रणनीती अमलात आणण्याचे ठरवले गेले. ४१ फील्ड रेजिमेंटच्या कमांडिंग ऑफिसरने तोफांचा गोळीबार करण्याची योजना आखली. बोफोर्स तोफांचा वापर केला गेला. हल्ल्याच्या दिवशी सुमारे १२० फील्ड आणि मध्यम तोफा, १२२- एमएम मल्टिबॅरल्ड ग्रँड रॉकेट लाँचर्स आणि लहान तोफांनी टायगर हिल येथे शत्रूवर प्राणघातक व विध्वंसक भडीमार केला गेला. वायुसेनेनेही २ व ३ जुलै रोजी टायगर हिलला लक्ष्य केले व अनेक वेळा शत्रूवर नेम साधला.

         भारताच्या लष्करी इतिहासामध्ये प्रथमच एका टीव्ही चॅनेलने युद्धाचे थेट प्रक्षेपण केले. टायगर हिल चा विस्तार पश्चिमेक्डून पूर्वेस सुमारे २२०० मीटर तर  उत्तरे कडून दक्षिणेस १००० मीटर आहे. टायगर हिलच्या पश्चिमेला जवळजवळ ५०० मीटर पश्चिमेला एक पुढे आलेला भाग हा ‘इंडिया गेट’ तर दुसरा भाग जो आणखी ३०० मीटर अंतरावर स्थित आहे त्याचे नाव ‘हेल्मेट’ आहे. १२ नॉर्दन लाइट इन्फंट्री या पाकिस्तान च्या एका बटालियनने हा भाग आपल्या नियंत्रणात ठेवलेला होता.

३ जुलै रोजी संध्याकाळी ७ वाजता, १८ ग्रेनेडियर्सने खराब हवामान आणि अंधाराच्या मदतीने विविध दिशांनी हल्ला सुरू केला. त्यानंतर ‘ए’ कंपनीने ४ जुलै रोजी दीड वाजता ‘टंग’ नावाच्या मध्यवर्ती स्थानावर ताबा मिळविला. मात्र इंडिया गेट, हेल्मेट आणि टॉप या ठिकाणांहून शत्रूंनी हल्ला केल्यामुळे पुढची मोहीम स्थगित करावी लागली होती.

दरम्यान कर्णधार सचिन निंबाळकर यांनी पूर्वेकडून ‘डी’ कंपनी हल्ल्याचे नेतृत्व केले. त्यांच्या कंपनीने अंधार आणि प्रतिकूल हवामान असूनही गिर्यारोहणाची उपकरणे वापरुन अतिशय कठीण असा उभ्या उताराचा भाग सर केला. त्यांच्या या चढाईने शत्रूला चकित केले. थोडया गोळीबारानंतर टायगर हिल टॉप पासून १०० मीटरच्या अंतरावर असलेल्या एरिया कॉलरच्या पूर्वेकडील भागावर कब्जा करण्यात ‘डी’ कंपनीला यश आले.

दुसर्‍या आघाडीवर लेफ्टनंट बलवानसिंग यांच्या नेतृत्वात ‘सी’ कंपनी आणि घातक या कमांडो प्लॅटून ने यावेळी उत्तर पूर्व भागातील अवघड अश्या अवघ्या ३० मीटर अंतरावर असलेल्या जागेवर ताबा मिळविला. ४ जुलै रोजी पहाटे चार वाजता, तोफखाना वापरून सचिन निंबाळकर आणि बलवानसिंग यांनी साथीदारांह उंच कडा सर करत टायर हिल टोक गाठले आणि शत्रूला गाफील अवस्थेत ठेवले. मात्र काही वेळानंतर शत्रूने प्रति हल्ला करण्यास जोमाने सुरुवात केली.

     लढाई दरम्यान सर्वात कठीण काम म्हणजे पुढील हल्ल्याची सुरूवात होण्यापूर्वी एखाद्याने ताब्यात घेतलेल्या भूमी धरुन ठेवणे. या हल्ल्या दरम्यान ग्रेनेडियर योगेंद्रसिंग यादव आणि त्यांच्या टीम च्या सदस्यांनी असाधारण  साहस दाखवले. या टप्प्यावर ८ माउंट डिव्हिजनला हे समजले की जोपर्यंत पश्चिमेला त्याच्या बाजूने पुरवठा सुरू आहे तोपर्यंत शत्रूला टायगर हिलमधून पूर्णपणे काढून टाकणे शक्य होणार नाही. मोहिंदर पुरी आणि एम.पी.एस. बाजवा यांनी ८ पलटणीच्या शीखांना हेल्मेट आणि इंडिया गेट वर हल्ला करून ते ताब्यात घेण्याचे आदेश जारी केले जेणेकरून टायगर हिल कडे येणारी शत्रूची मदत अडवली जाईल.

         मेजर रवींद्र सिंह आणि लेफ्टनंट आर. के. सेहरावत यांच्या नेतृत्वात ८ पलटणीच्या शिखांची राखीव फळी ज्यात चार जे.सी.ओ. आणि बावन्न सैनिकांचा समावेश होता, त्यांनी कठीण परिस्थितीत उंच खडक चढून आणि निकराच्या  संघर्षानंतर इंडिया गेट ताब्यात घेतले. या युद्धामध्ये सुभेदार निर्मल सिंग यांनी या प्लाटूनचे नेतृत्व केले. प्रचंड जीवितहानी होत असूनही ८ पलटणीच्या शीखांनी ५ जुलै रोजी यश खेचून आणले.

         शत्रूंनी चाळीस ते पन्नास सैनिकांसह दोन प्रतिहल्ले केले, परंतु ८ पलटणीचे शीख शौर्याने लढले आणि त्यांचा हल्ला परतवून लावण्यास यशस्वी झाले. हेल्मेट च्या मागील उतारावर तैनात असलेल्या पलटणचा भाग असलेले नायब सुभेदार कर्नेल सिंग आणि रायफलमन सतपाल सिंग यांनी अतुलनीय शौर्य दाखवले. यापैकी एका प्रतिहल्ल्यात पाकिस्तान लष्कराचा कॅप्टन कर्नाल शेर खान मारले गेले. त्यानंतर त्यांचा मृतदेह पाकिस्तानी अधिकाऱ्यांना देण्यात आला. युद्धभूमीवर सभोवताल विखुरलेल्या पाकिस्तानी सैनिकांचे मृतदेह एकत्रित करून आणि त्यांना योग्यरीत्या पुरण्यात आले.

नवी दिल्लीत मी ३ जुलैच्या रात्री संपूर्ण चिंताग्रस्त होतो. दुसर्‍या दिवशी सकाळी जी.ओ.सी. १५ कॉर्प्सच्या, कृष्ण पॉल यांनी सहा वाजतापर्यंत माहिती दिली की १८ ग्रेनेडियर्सने टायगर हिल टॉपवर ताबा मिळवला आहे आणि जोरदार युद्ध चालू आहे. त्यांच्याशी आणि निर्मल चंदर विज यांच्याशी सल्लामसलत केल्यानंतर आम्ही जी.ओ.सी. ८ माउंटन डिव्हिजनकडून या घटनेची पुष्टी होण्याची वाट पाहण्याचे ठरविले. साडे सात वाजता मोहिंदर पुरी यांनी मला याची पुष्टी केली की टायगर हिल टॉपमधून शत्रू १८ ग्रेनेडीयर्स ला हुसकून लावू शकणार नाही. ब्रजेश मिश्रा आणि पंतप्रधानांना मी याची माहिती दिली. संरक्षणमंत्री अमृतसरला जात होते. जेव्हा ते विमानतळावर उतरले तेव्हा मी त्याला ही रोमांचक बातमी दिली.

         ४ जुलै १९९९ ही तारीख आणखी एका कारणास्तव महत्वाची होती. नवाज शरीफ अमेरिकेचे अध्यक्ष बिल क्लिंटन यांची भेट घेणार होते. त्यांच्या बैठकीच्या सुमारे दहा ते पंधरा तासांपूर्वी आम्ही हे सुनिश्चित केले की संपूर्ण जगाला टायगर हिलच्या पुन्हा कब्जाविषयी माहिती पोहोचेल.

     काही काळापर्यंत, पाकिस्तानने अशा शिखराचे अस्तित्व नाकारले आणि संपूर्ण ऑपरेशनला आमच्या कल्पनाशक्तीचे लेबल लावले. टायगर हिल गमावणे हा एक शत्रूला शारीरिक आणि मानसिक धक्का होता. ८ जुलै रोजी  टायगर हिलचा कब्जा पूर्ण झाल्यानंतर आणि परिस्थिती स्थिरस्थावर झाल्यानंतर १८ ग्रॅनाडायर्सनी टायगर हिल टॉपवर भारतीय तिरंगा फडकविला. सुमारे दोन महिन्यांच्या दीर्घ युद्धाच्या कार्यकाळात बटालियनने स्वत: ला सिद्ध केले. युद्धानंतर, बटालियनने संयुक्त राष्ट्र संघाच्या मिशनची विनंती केली असता सैन्याच्या मुख्यालयाने त्यांना सिएरा लिऑन (पश्चिम आफ्रिका) येथे पाठविले. तेथेही बटालियनने यशस्वीरित्या एक मोठे बचाव अभियान राबवले त्याला ‘ऑपरेशन खुकरी’ असे नाव होते.  


Activity Sheet No.1

Q. Read the extract and complete the activities given below.(12)

Tiger Hill towers majestically above all other mountaintops in its vicinity. Although located almost 10 kilometers north of the Srinagar-Kargil-Leh highway, the enemy position on this mountaintop dominated parts of this highway. After the recapture of Tololing and the adjacent features, evicting the enemy from this well-fortified position became a priority.

As the sharp triangular top of Tiger Hill was clearly visible from the highway, and appeared almost impossible to capture, the media had projected the entire episode as a national challenge.          

Brigadier M.P.S. Bajwa, commander, 192 Mountain Brigade, assigned the mission of capturing Tiger Hill to 18 grenadiers, now rested and recouped after their achievements at Tololing and Hump, and to 8 Sikh, which was already deployed at its base. Both these units were assisted by a crack team from the High-Altitude Warfare School, with maximum possible artillery, engineering and other combat support. Throughout the last week of June 1999, 18 Grenadiers probed to establish the extent of the enemy’s defenses and to scout for suitable routes for the assault. A simultaneous multidirectional assault emerged as the best strategy. The commanding officer of 41 Field Regiment drew up an elaborate artillery fire plan. Individual guns were ranged so as to cover each objective. Bofors guns were used in a direct firing role once again, with inspiring accuracy. On the day of the assault, nearly 120 field and medium guns, 122-mm multibarrelled Grad rocket launchers and mortars rained death and destruction on the enemy at Tiger Hill. The Air Force, too, targeted Tiger Hill on 2-3 July, and hit the bull’s eye several times during its missions.     

For the first time in India’s military history, a TV channel covered the battle live: a sign of progress and transparency, not to mention the on-screen depiction of confidence. The Tiger Hill feature extends about 2200 meters from west to east and about 1000 meters north to south. The main extension is towards the west, on which there are two prominent protrusions. The first, approximately 500 meters west of Tiger Hill, had been named ‘India Gate’, and the second, ‘Helmet’ (located another 300 meters away). Approximately one company of 12 Northern Light Infantry (Pakistan) held the whole feature.

Importance of Tiger Hill

Tiger Hill holds significant military importance in the context of the Kargil War, which took place in 1999 between India and Pakistan in the Kargil district of Jammu and Kashmir. Tiger Hill is a strategic mountain feature in the Dras sector, and its capture and control were crucial for both sides during the conflict. Here are some key points regarding the significance of Tiger Hill:

टायगर हिलचे महत्त्व

जम्मू आणि काश्मीरमधील कारगिल जिल्ह्यात 1999 मध्ये भारत आणि पाकिस्तान दरम्यान झालेल्या कारगिल युद्धाच्या संदर्भात टायगर हिलला महत्त्वपूर्ण लष्करी महत्त्व आहे. टायगर हिल हे द्रास सेक्टरमधील एक मोक्याच्या डोंगराचे वैशिष्ट्य आहे आणि संघर्षाच्या वेळी दोन्ही बाजूंनी त्यावर कब्जा करणे आणि नियंत्रण करणे महत्त्वाचे होते.

High Ground Advantage: 

Tiger Hill is a steep, icy peak that provides a commanding view of the surrounding areas. Control of such high ground is crucial in military operations as it offers strategic advantages, allowing forces to observe and dominate the area below.

Observation and Surveillance: 

The height of Tiger Hill allowed whoever controlled it to monitor the movements of the enemy and gather intelligence about their activities in the region. This made it a valuable asset for both offensive and defensive operations.

Artillery and Mortar Position: 

The elevated position of Tiger Hill made it an ideal location for the deployment of artillery and mortar units. Control of the hill would enable the party in possession to effectively target and interdict enemy positions and movements in the region.

Access to National Highway 1A: 

The control of Tiger Hill by Pakistani forces during the early stages of the Kargil War posed a threat to the vital National Highway 1A, which connects Srinagar to Leh. By controlling Tiger Hill, Pakistan aimed to disrupt the supply lines to Indian forces in the region.

Symbolic Significance: 

Tiger Hill gained symbolic significance during the Kargil War due to the intense and bloody battles fought for its control. The conflict on Tiger Hill became one of the most well-known episodes of the Kargil War and a symbol of the determination and sacrifice of the soldiers involved.

Strategic Location in Dras Sector: 

Tiger Hill is situated in the Dras sector, which witnessed some of the fiercest battles during the Kargil War. The sector's importance lies in its proximity to the Line of Control (LoC) and the potential for influencing the overall strategic balance in the region.

Ultimately, the capture of Tiger Hill by the Indian armed forces after intense and challenging battles played a crucial role in the overall success of Operation Vijay, the codename for the military action taken to evict the Pakistani forces from the Kargil region. The conflict highlighted the strategic significance of controlling high-altitude terrain and the challenges associated with mountain warfare.

Q. Read the extract and complete the activities given below.(12)

 

        At 1900 hours on 3 July, 18 Grenadiers commenced its multidirectional assault under the cover of bad weather and darkness, supported by the fire power of artillery and mortars. ‘A’ company captured an intermediate position called Tongue by 0130 hours on 4 July. Further advance along the southeastern spur leading to Tiger Hill Top was stalled due to accurate fire by the enemy from India Gate, Helmet and Top.

        Meanwhile, Captain Sachin Nimbalkar led the ‘D’ Company assault from the east. His company had to negotiate steep escarpment using mountaineering equipment, despite the darkness and the inclement weather. His approach took the enemy by surprise. After some firefighting, ‘D’ Company was successful in occupying the eastern portion of Area Collar, which lay within 100 meters of Tiger Hill Top

        On another front, ‘C’ Company and Ghatak (Commando) platoon under Lieutenant Balwan Singh also surprised the enemy, this time along the difficult northeastern spur and obtained a toehold just 30 meters from the top.

         At 0400 hours on 4 July, after a carefully orchestrated artillery bombardment, Sachin Nimbalkar and Balwan Singh along with their men approached Tiger Hill Top by climbing a sheer cliff and caught the enemy unawares. After a spell of hand-to-hand fighting, they succeeded in capturing the objective. Although 18 Grenadiers held the top now, linking up with them was not easy. When the initial surprise wore off, the enemy started gearing up for launching counterattacks.

         One of the most difficult tasks during the course of a battle is to maintain one’s hold on the ground captured, before the next assault can be launched.
