Indian Army adapts communication strategies to engage GenZ effectively.
The Indian Army is evolving its communication strategy to effectively engage with GenZ, recognizing the vital role of social media in shaping public perception and combating misinformation. This shift follows Operation Sindoor, where the Army faced a barrage of online disinformation, prompting a pivot to more relatable and transparent content that resonates with younger audiences. Innovative formats such as short videos, ASMR clips, and interactive storytelling are being employed to enhance public understanding of defense operations. This approach not only aims to protect operational integrity but also reflects the Army’s broader modernization efforts, emphasizing cognitive warfare as a crucial component in contemporary conflicts.
