Army Chief: Operation Sindoor Marks a New Era in Counter-Terrorism Efforts

General Upendra Dwivedi, the Army Chief, spoke at the Kargil Vijay Diwas ceremony, emphasizing the significance of Operation Sindoor.

He stated that the operation was intended to send a strong message that supporting cross-border attacks will not be tolerated. Dwivedi also announced the creation of ‘Rudra’ brigades, integrated combat units designed to enhance military effectiveness. The Army Chief paid tribute to the Kargil martyrs and launched commemorative projects, while reaffirming the Army’s dedication to safeguarding the nation and supporting development in border regions.
