Here is a detailed account on the 1962 debacle in Nefa (now Arunachal Pradesh). This article debunks many of the myths going around for decades on the causes of the defeat. It brings to fore some hitherto unknown facts with references to memos, documents, and first-hand accounts of men who actually fought in the war.

VIDEO: https://x.com/Samarth19567493/status/17 ... 37976?s=20 ---> An eye witness account of the Battle of Nurnang fought along the Sela Pass in 1962 war, where Rifleman Jaswantsingh Rawat and his comrades of 4th Garhwal Rifles would repulse several PLA assaults by small arms and grenade and achieve eternal glory. The Interview features a subhedar of the company. It was taken at Tezpur town. The 4th Garhwal Rifles is the only battalion in the disastrous Kameng sector of the 1962 War which got a battle honour. They fought splendidly in the battle and withdrew only after orders.

VIDEO: https://x.com/Samarth19567493/status/17 ... 70929?s=20 ---> An international coverage on state of Tezpur town just after declaration of ceasefire by red china in aftermath of the 1962 Sino-Indian conflict.

VIDEO: https://x.com/Samarth19567493/status/17 ... 00083?s=20 ---> Scenes from Bombay (Mumbai) during the 1962 Sino-Indian war. This is probably the most emotional clip. Women are donating their bangles, ornaments and gold. Children donating piggybank savings and adult boys donating their blood to support troops on frontiers.

VIDEO: https://x.com/jai_samota/status/1765749 ... 61257?s=20 ---> A batch of 160 Indian Prisoners of War, who were captured during first phase of the 1962 War in Ladakh being repatriated by the Chinese at Spanggur Gap. The batch included troops of J&K Militia, 1/8 Gorkha Rifles and 5 Jat. The final scene of the video, a dance that perfectly captures the joy of returning to motherland.
