In another highlight of the Indian Defence Forces, the Indian Army’s impressive engineering skills came to the fore on Sunday after a video depicted the troops constructing a bridge across the Indus river.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The video was titled ‘Bridging Challenges – No Terrain nor Altitude Insurmoutable’ and was shared on Twitter by the South Western Command of the Indian Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The drill was carried out by the Sapta Shakti Engineers in Eastern Ladakh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The building of the bridge included carrying out mobility tasks and training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Bridging Challenges – No Terrain nor Altitude Insurmoutable’. SaptaShaktiEngineers in EasternLadakh carrying out mobility tasks and training. Bridging the mighty #Indus River, enabling movement of both combat and logistic echelons,” tweeted South Western Command of the Indian Army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The video depicts the mechanical launch of heavy metal parts into the waterbody as the bridge is shown to be completed at the end of the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Army personnel engrossed in teamwork can be seen in the exercise while heavy trucks cross the terrain after the bridge has been completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier on Sunday, the Indian Army chief General Manoj Pande, who is on a two-day visit to the Ladakh sector, flew in an Indian Air Force Apache attack helicopter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
