FAUJI BRAWN: Should a truck breakdown, pray that it’s an army vehicle with some jawans on board. Fauji grit was on display at Indira Byepass, Gangtok, at Maney Khola near Pangthang this morning [at 11.30 a.m.] when this truck broke down on a difficult stretch and held up traffic. The vehicle just wouldn’t budge, but went down to the collective might of the jawans who pushed and tugged it into submission. Before they pushed the truck back and parked it by the side, allowing traffic through again, they tried pushing it onwards [an uphill] for a while.
