I have deleted the line about Chinese casualities since there is no source cited and there is no way Indian sources are valid consider they didn't control the battle field after the fact and they don't have reliable witness accounts. The Sino-India war was very one-sided because Indian army was ill-trained and ill-organized. Claiming a mythical high Chinese casualties won't change that fact.Centralk 01:19, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone know where if the first part of that quote on the marker comes from a primary text? Some sort of Indian sacred text? --Micah Hainline 03:37, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The quote was made by a 19th century English Poet.Thomas B. Macaulay.

More clearly than the previous unsigned line: the quote from the marker should be probably cross-referenced with the articles on 19th century poet, historian and politician Thomas Babington Macaulay, 1st Baron Macaulay and his work Horatius from Lays of Ancient Rome - also, as a random fact, referenced in the well-known English children's book Charlotte Sometimes as "Lars Porsena of Clusium".

Title & format

The whole article seems to be about a battle rather than just about this pass. Maybe that should be incorporated into the title. Also, because it does not look quite in line with WP's style, I am adding a cleanup tag. LogicalFinance33 (talk) 02:31, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
