Chief of the Army Staff Gen Manoj Pandey said on Wednesday that Indian Army should prepare for the future keeping in mind the possible challenges as the dangers and challenges before the Indian Army are likely to get more complex in the future, and India needs to be ready to face them.
Talking to reporters at the Kargil War Memorial in Drass, Kargil on the occasion of the 24th Kargil Vijay Diwas he said, “We have been working on adaptive, resilient and responsive processes. Our Army will emerge as a technology-enabled and future-ready force to deal with security challenges.”
Paying rich tribute to the martyrs, Army Chief said “the country will never forget the sacrifices (of Kargil War martyrs)….Operation Vijay was a difficult and high-intensity military operation. It was difficult terrain that was under the possession of the enemy. It was a challenge that our soldiers accomplished…I also want to commend the Air warriors for their contribution in achieving the final objective.”
