Stating that disengagement and de-escalation are the way forward to find a peaceful resolution to the India-China military face-off in eastern Ladakh, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday said Indian troops are standing “firm” and the ongoing talks between the two sides will continue.
He also said the proxy war by the adversary continues even as he complimented the synergy between the CAPF and police forces and the Army in tackling terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir.
“The synergised operations in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir are contributing to increased stability in the region and the same should continue,” he said.
Singh was addressing the top Army officers at the Army Commanders’ Conference – the apex level biannual event where the Army’s apex leadership deliberates upon the existing security scenarios along the borders and the hinterland and challenges for the present security apparatus – held here.
The conference also focused on issues pertaining to organisational restructuring, logistics, administration, human resource management, modernisation through indigenisation, induction of niche technologies and assessment of impact of the various existing global situations.
In his address, he said unconventional and asymmetric warfare, including hybrid war will be part of the future conventional wars. “Cyber, information, communication, trade and finance have all become an inseparable part of future conflicts. This necessitates that Armed Forces will have to keep all these facets in consideration while planning and formulating strategies,” he said.
