The Battle of Rezang La was fought on 18 November 1962, during the Sino-Indian War. A small company of 120 Indian soldiers of the 13 Kumaon regiment, led by Major Shaitan Singh, defended the strategically important Rezang La pass in Ladakh against a much larger attacking force of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. Despite being heavily outnumbered and fighting in harsh high-altitude conditions, the Indian soldiers fought valiantly, inflicting heavy casualties on the attackers before being overrun. The battle is remembered as one of the most courageous last stands in military history.
