Abstract

This discussion brings about the niceties of some interesting practices related to food and water management that had their origin in the battlefields and military traditions of Rajasthan. From the strategic perspective, the logistics of food and drinks in the battlefields ought to be time saving, soldier friendly and followed by ease of supply. This scientific enquiry systematically unearths the rationale behind these practices and is pertinent to the logistics and strategies and relevant for the contemporary defense science too. Some of these practices could be of great help for an individual soldier as survival tricks too. The prominent food traditions and practices and high incidence of consumption of opium in the present state of Rajasthan trace their historical roots in the battlefields of the past.
