  • 1n 1971, six scientists from Def. R&D were deputed to forward areas in NEFA for two months to get awareness about hardships faced by army in remote isolated forward terrains. Tenga 5 Mount.Div. Hqs. was our assembly point from where we were dispersed to various locations. I spent 2 weeks each at Tenga, Dahung, Senge and Nuranag. Col. Kalra at Tenga was our direct contact and we often spent our time playing contract bridge with Col. Kalra and his staff.
