The Defence Research and Development Organisation has developed multiple products such the Him-Taapak heating devices and snow melters to help Indian Army jawans deployed in extremely low temperatures.

One such device, the Him Tapak space heating device ‘Bukhari’ will help jawans in areas such as Eastern Ladakh and Siachen battle the extreme cold conditions.
