Impressive that the Army is focusing on multi-domain operations and emerging tech. But I hope these efforts are matched with proper welfare for our jawans and their families. The real strength of our Army is in its soldiers, not just gadgets. Respect to all those serving in tough conditions. 🙏
Very reassuring to see the continuous focus on combat readiness. Given the threats from both China and Pakistan, it's critical that our Northern Command stays ahead. The mention of 'dynamic security environment' is spot-on—we need to be prepared for anything.
These visits are important, but I wish the media would cover the actual issues facing our soldiers—like the need for better winter gear and post-retirement support. Modernisation is good, but basics must be solid first. Still, hats off to General Dwivedi for his commitment.
Great to see the Army Chief reviewing both Northern and Southern Commands in quick succession. Shows a holistic approach to national security. The emphasis on technology absorption is key—future wars will be won by those who innovate faster. Proud of our forces! ✨
I hope this isn't just a ceremonial visit. We've seen enough reports about delays in modernisation and obsolescence in certain arms. Actions speak louder than words—let's see actual progress on the ground. But I appreciate the intent. Best of luck to our soldiers.
