Sonam Wangchuk makes world's first solar-powered tent for Indian Army

Sonam Wangchuk has a gift for our Indian Army jawans deployed at higher altitudes. Soldiers have to brave harsh temperatures every winter. With the lack of access to electricity, their only option is to turn to other heating solutions like burning firewood, kerosene or diesel. Ladakh-based engineer, education reformer, and the man behind the character of ‘Phunsukh Wangdu’ in the Bollywood blockbuster ‘3 Idiots’ Sonam Wangchuk has now built a solar-powered military tent for the Indian Army at the Galwan Valley.
