IANS has learnt that they began at 11.30 in the morning and reached Munsyari at 7.30 in the evening, on the same day. For this, the jawans had to cross narrow stretches of the Syuni-Munsiyari road which is blocked because of heavy rainfall and landslides, with the dead body on the stretcher.
Eight hours of journey on foot by eight ITBP jawans just to ensure a dead body reaches Munsiyari and is handed over to the family in his native village so that it gets a dignified closure has definitely set an example of humanity.
