THE Indian Army is in the process of raising a division-level formation to be permanently positioned in the sensitive Eastern Ladakh area, sources told this newspaper.
This will be in addition to the 3 Division, which is responsible for the entire Line of Actual Control (LAC).
Terming it a major re-ORBAT move, sources said the new formation will be called 72 Division. ORBAT means 'order of battle' and Re-ORBAT means reorganising and redeployment of existing troops.
In the Army, a division comprises 10,000-15,000 combat troops and 8,000 support elements, commanded by a Major General, and made up of 3 to 4 brigades. A brigade has a troop size of 3,500-4,000 with a brigadier as commander. A major general commands a division.
