Making sure that the nation is not deaf to the thunder of artillery, Kargil war veteran Major General (Retd) Lakhwinder Singh is out with his book: ‘Artillery`s Thunder: The Untold Kargil Story’. Maj Gen Singh, who lives in Delhi, is in Mumbai as part of his book promotions. Artillery’s Thunder sheds light on the seminal but unfortunately little-understood contribution of the Indian army’s artillery units during the 1999 Kargil War. Said Maj Gen Singh in a freewheeling chat in his South Mumbai hotel: “The artillery force and its role are lesser-known facets of Indian defence. My book, though launched more than two decades post the Kargil War, has tremendous resonance because we are living in times of conflict.”
