Shivaji Statue at Pangong Lake:
A statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was inaugurated on the banks of Pangong Tso at an altitude of 14,300 feet.It was unveiled shortly after India and China completed disengagement at Demchok and Depsang, ending a 4.5 year border standoff. However, it has sparked debate among army veterans and locals, with a retired Colonel proposing a statue of Dogra general Zorawar Singh, whose 1834-1840 campaign merged Ladakh with the Dogra kingdom under Maharaja Ranjit Singh. Pangong Tso is an endorheic lake in the Himalayas situated at a height of about 4,350 m (14,270 ft).
