From taking part in the 1971 war with Pakistan, counter-insurgency operations in the North-east and spearheading the counter-attack during the Kargil war, this formation of the Indian Army has been 'forever in operations'.
Four of its commanders have gone on to become army chiefs. This is the story of 8 Mountain Division, which was raised in 1963 in Nagaland, primarily to deal with the insurgency there and, subsequently, in Manipur. As the problem manifested itself in J&K, the force was relocated to the Valley in 1990.
Nine years later, its role changed during the Kargil intrusion and it successfully led the counter-attack.
This episode of 'Simply Nitin' comes to you from the headquarters of the 8 Mountain Division in Khumbathang, Ladakh.
And StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale shares interesting details about the formation, now helmed by a man more three decades after his father commanded it.

  • Whenever you say Ladaak instead of Ladakh , it always brings a smile to my face as the frontier is actively facing threat and your pronunciation is a hindi variation of Attack. 😊. Superb coverage of our armed forces on this channel.

  • Typically thorough and informative presentation by Nitin Gokhale. Keep it up! Fascinating to learn of the generational history of 8 Mt. Div and other formations. Bought Nitin’s book, Beyond NJ9842…an utterly fascinating read! Kudos to Nitin and homage of course to the intrepid men and women of the armed services! Respect and Regard! 🙏

  • Indians reporting about the Indian military is always narrated in terms of Commanders as opposed to from Jawan/soldier PoV of western reporting. That makes Indian reporting very "elitist" and "top-down". Good to know that 4 commanders became Army Chiefs. But they did not achieve everything by themselves. They achieved by riding on the shoulders of Jawans, so a few stories about the soldiers, junior, middle rank commanders will provide balanced narrative.
