The entire Siachen Glacier, with all major passes, is currently under the administration of India since 1984.[5][6][7][8] Pakistan controls the region west of Saltoro Ridge, far away from the glacier,[9] with Pakistani posts located 3,000 ft below more than 100 Indian posts on Saltoro Ridge.[10][11]
