HistoryEdit

The 3rd Division was raised in 1962 even as the disastrous war was underway, from elements of HQ Nagaland and kept as an Eastern Command reserve, even though it almost always remained on CI duty.[3] After near 30 years in Eastern, the division left the theater two decades ago for Ladakh and never returned. While on CI duty, the division was pulled out and sent to fight Pakistani infiltrators in the Matayan-Dras sectors. Then when HQ XIV Corps was raised, it took over the 3rd and 8th Division.

During the Kargil War it consisted of 56th Mountain Brigade, usually stationed at Matayan, 79th Mountain Brigade, usually stationed at Dras, and 192nd Mountain Brigade.[4]

Exercise Changthang Prahar an Integrated Exercise of all Arms in Super High Altitude Area was conducted in September 2019.[5][6]

  • 8th Mountain Division - (Forever in Operations Division) - It was raised in 1963 to carry out counter insurgency operations in Nagaland. Until 1990, it was headquartered at Kohima under III Corps.[7] As trouble erupted in Kashmir in the late 1980s, the division was moved to the Kashmir Valley, making it the spearhead of the counter-insurgency operations. During the Kargil War, it was rushed into the Kargil-Drass and Batalik sectors from Kashmir Valley, where it proved its mettle.[8] It is presently tasked to look after the LoC.
