CDS Anil Chauhan explains operational role, new warfare domains and multi-front threat preparedness - On the role of CDS during Operation Sindoor and warfare campaigns, CDS General Anil Chauhan said, "The government sanction, which created this post of CDS in our case, says that the CDS will exercise no military command over the three service chiefs. So, in the operative world, I will not exercise military command... That doesn't mean that I don't have an operational role... I derive an operational role from the Chiefs of Staff Committee... As in Operation Sindoor, most decisions were taken by the Chiefs of Staff Committee, for which I am the permanent chairman. So here, there's an operational role for me. I also have a direct operational role in new domains of warfare. It may not be land, maritime or air, but it's space, cyber, cognitive, and electromagnetic domains. These are the new domains because they are directly under headquarters ideas.” On three front war threat from Pakistan, China, and Turkey, he says, "...Of these three countries, one doesn't share a border with us: Turkey... There is no formal military alliance or treaty between them. Coming to each other's aid is a different kind of aid... we must take that into account in our particular calculus... In Operation Sindoor, we mobilise some assets, etc., that were deployed on the northern borders and move them to the western borders. These contingency plans are part of operational plans. That's how we take care of these fronts... Regarding technological cooperation between the two countries... we need to constantly look at what kinds of technologies they are acquiring and how they will affect warfare in the future. So we are cognizant of that. We're taking cognisance of whatever is happening. Accordingly, we are taking measures..." #CDSAnilChauhan #ChiefOfDefenceStaff #OperationSindoor #IndianArmedForces #WarfareStrategy #CyberWarfare #SpaceWarfare #DefencePreparedness #MultiFrontThreat #NationalSecurity Join ANI's YouTube membership to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtFQDgA8J8_iiwc5-KoAQlg/join Subscribe now and press the bell icon 🔔 to get new video updates: https://bit.ly/2UV4ygi -------------------------------------- ANI is South Asia's leading Multimedia News Agency providing content for every information platform, including TV, Internet, broadband, newspapers, and mobiles.
