Efforts to harmonize civil and defense operational terminology are expected to improve the speed of deployment of troops and rescue crews to required locations.
India’s standardisation of 27 geographical features in Arunachal Pradesh on official Survey of India maps may best be described as a “change of tack”, from a passive to a proactive approach to the cartographic dimensions of its conflict with China. By standardising the names of 21 settlements, four mountain passes, a high-altitude lake and a war memorial, Delhi is directly addressing Beijing’s long-standing use of fictitious renaming campaigns as a way of manufacturing a desired version of reality on paper.
The defense significance is derived from the importance of the locations specifically mentioned in the excetional report especially the mountain corridors and the historic flash-points along the borders. By identifying the high passes such as Thag La, Dzo La, Riza La and Pukur La defense has the capability to claim the salient and management of the ridge section in the east front.
Thag La being the opening site of the War of 1962 and the forward areas of Longju and Maja of Upper Subansiri district have a significant operational value for better maintaining poses of the forces and preventing any further breaches of the frontiers. Moving standard names across civil, military and Survey of India records is a process that can help smooth out administrative coordination during defence contingencies.
It can name and locate a forward logistical hub like Jairampur in Changlang district in Arunachal Pradesh that could help propel troops and supplies towards the eastern frontier. Meanwhile, it can also make the presence of facilities such as Jaswant Garh and the Sher e Thapa Memorial be woven, in a sense, into the background of the country’s cartography and thereby bolster an intrinsic link between the frontiers, security outposts, and the defensive heritage of India.
