Lt General Rajesh Pushkar Takes Charge As Southern Command Chief

He succeeds Lieutenant General Sandeep Jain, who has taken over as the Vice Chief of the Army Staff, according to a defence release.

Operation Sindoor has made it clear that armed conflicts can be short and strategically, it established a new normal for India's response to terror, Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi has told NDTV.

Technology cannot remain at the margins or only at higher headquarters, Army chief General Upendra Dwivedi, who retires tomorrow, said. He stressed that if doctrine moves too slowly, technology will outrun organisations.

Operation Sindoor: The names of these soldiers will be inscribed at the National War Memorial in the national Capital.

The document shows planning is underway for the maintenance and support of all 36 Rafale fighter jets acquired from France.

Rajnath Singh said that Op Sindoor has shown the world that India knows how to respond to those who do not understand the language of peace

On May 10, 2025, the Pakistani military also used the Fatah-1 guided artillery rocket during the cross-border offensive. However, that was successfully intercepted and destroyed mid-air by India's air defence network over Sirsa, Haryana.

The Army Chief said today, the "world around us is sending a more complex signal -- disorder, distrust, and dichotomy in alliances".

General Dwivedi's remarks, though brief, carried a blunt message to Pakistan and reiterated India's stand against terrorism.

The success of the high-precision Operation Sindoor can be attributed to the dedication and focus of many personnel from the Indian armed forces.
