Soldiers mother body till he walked 50 miles in snow


Muhammad Abbas (25) belongs to a remote village of Karnah tehsil in Kupwara. and he is posted at Pathankot in Punjab. A few weeks ago, he had taken his mother Sakeena Begum to his work place to ensure she escapes the biting cold in Kashmir. But his mother, who had been ill, died of a cardiac arrest on January 28.Next morning, Abbas returned to Srinagar with the body of his mother.
Since the roads were blocked due to heavy snowfall in the Valley, he urged an Army officer for a chopper to fly her mother’s body to his village for the final rites.When Abbas realised that his request was being snubbed, he left for Drangyari in Kupwara, hoping the Army might help them fly the body to Chitrakote, 52km away.

But the help never came. In Drangyari, Abbas was joined by a few relatives. The soldier kept calling the officers for a chopper but no one heeded to his repeated requests. They remained stranded in Drangyari for three days.

It was on Thursday morning that Abbas decided to embark on the most arduous journey of his life. The 52km long route (Chowkibal-Karnah), which is prone to avalanche, passes through elevations of 3,200 metre.
