Both exercises were performed with high accuracy, precision, and perfect coordination, signalling the war readiness of the Indian Army in modern combat scenarios.

Lt Gen Manjinder Singh was impressed by the troops’ high performance, morale, and discipline. He lauded their commitment to excellence and stressed continuous innovation in training.

This visit underscores that the Indian Army is always looking forward to modernizing the implementation of new technologies and developing tactical acumen to ensure they don’t become adversarial tools in the battles of the future.
