NEW DELHI: The Indian Army is ready and capable to face all current and future security challenges facing India, Army Chief Gen Upendra Dwivedi said on Monday amid the lingering border row with China in eastern Ladakh.
A day after he assumed charge of the 1.3 million-strong force, Gen Dwivedi said working towards ensuring synergy among the Army, Air Force and the Navy would be one of his priorities.
In remarks to the media after inspecting a guard of honour at the South Block in Raisina hills, he said the Army is facing “unique operational challenges” and to remain prepared for such threats, it is crucial to continue equipping the soldiers with latest weapons.
