Army Chief Dwivedi: Theaterisation is essential, timing varies.
Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi emphasized the necessity of theaterisation, which integrates Army, Navy, and Air Force capabilities under unified command for effective coordination during warfare. This approach addresses the challenges posed by various agencies involved in national defense, promoting jointness and streamlined operations. While some military leaders express concerns about resource allocation and air power division, the Army maintains that theaterisation is essential for enhancing India’s crisis response and offensive abilities. The ongoing debate highlights the need for a tailored Indian model rather than adopting foreign structures, ensuring a robust military capable of addressing regional challenges effectively.
