Doda, May 14: Beyond its steadfast role as a protector of the nation’s frontiers, the Indian Army has emerged as a vital lifeline for civilians affected by cross-border shelling in the Doda region. In areas where daily life is disrupted by fear and destruction, the Army’s role transcends traditional defence—it becomes a symbol of hope, resilience, and humanity.
A shining example of this compassionate commitment is the effort undertaken by the Doda-based Army battalion. Acknowledging the silent suffering of families displaced or distressed due to shelling incidents, the battalion has stepped in with empathy and swift action.
From delivering essential food supplies to stranded civilians to establishing emergency medical camps for the injured and ill, Army personnel have ensured that no family feels abandoned. Their presence in high-risk and hard-to-reach areas has filled a critical gap where civilian agencies often face logistical and safety challenges.
“The Army not only guards our borders but also protects our lives,” said a local resident, recalling the timely assistance provided during a recent shelling episode.
Whether offering a comforting word, a helping hand, or crucial medical aid, the soldiers have stood tall as both protectors and caregivers. Their selfless service has brought comfort to communities living under constant threat and has helped restore a semblance of normalcy in troubled regions.
Over time, the Indian Army has built strong bonds of trust with the local population by listening to grievances and responding with timely, effective support. These humanitarian efforts have not only saved lives but also rekindled public faith in institutional care
In the face of the enemy, the Indian Army stands firm. In the face of human suffering, it stands kind. Its courage is evident on the battlefield, but its compassion shines equally bright in the hearts of the people it serves.
