Tanot Mata Mandir and Longewala Border | Episode 3 #part 1
Ever wondered what War feels like ? Well, today we take you back in time to an era where miracles & valour, sacrifices and selfless patriotism were profound. In this episode we start our drive from Jaisalmer City to Tanot Mata Mandir and Longewala border.
The drive from Jaisalmer to Tanot Mata Mandir takes around 2-3 hours, depending on the traffic and road conditions. The journey itself is a visual treat, with vast stretches of the Thar desert, sand dunes, and small villages passing by on the way.
Tanot Mata Mandir is situated near the India-Pakistan border and is 120 kms from Jaisalmer city. The temple is believed to have been protected by the goddess Tanot Mata during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965. According to legend, the enemy army had dropped several bombs on the temple, but none of them exploded, and the temple remained unharmed. Today, the unexploded bombs are kept in a museum within the temple complex, and the temple is visited by thousands of devotees every year.
If you want to proceed further and see the Indo - Pakistan border you need to take your ticket from the mandir and catch the Babliyan border road which is approximately 14 kms. Carry a set of binoculars and you will be able to see the LOC clearly. We were given a brief explanation about the border by an Army personnel himself which was truly remarkable.
After getting a close-up view of the LOC we headed towards the Longewala war memorial. It is located about 17 kilometers from the Tanot Mata Temple. Longewala is known for the battle which was fought during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. Back then tensions between India and Pakistan were high and war broke out between the two countries. A company of Indian soldiers stationed at the border post at Longewala came under attack from a large Pakistani tank force. The Indian soldiers were vastly outnumbered and outgunned, but they held their ground and fought off the Pakistani attack for over 12 hours. The Indian Army's victory at Longewala was a significant turning point and helped secure India's western front.
The Longewala War Memorial has been built to honor the brave soldiers who fought in the battle. The museum displays weapons, tanks, and other military equipment used in the battle. There are also several plaques and inscriptions in honor of the soldiers who fought and died in the battle. You cannot thank the Indian Armed forces enough for what they do to protect our lives & freedom.
Truly worth a visit if you visit Rajasthan. Enjoy our little trip back into history with the unique and truly spectacular desert landscape.
