Description About The Author:- Brigadier (Dr) Kuldip Singh Gulia is a noted and active environmentalist. A PhD. In Himalayan Studies from the Centre for Himalayan Studies, University of North Bengal, he has carried out a deep research on the human and physical ecosystem of Himalayan Ranges. His work on the Autochthones of Sikkim Himalayas and his description of the Monasteries and Gompas of all sects of Buddhism have earned him a wide acclaim. A author commanded a Bridage in Gujrat immediately in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake of 26 January 2001.
