Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi said on Saturday (November 22, 2025) that Operation Sindoor was a reliable orchestra, where every musician played his or her role together. Because of this we managed to eliminate nine terrorist targets in 22 minutes. The fighting was over within 88 hours. The important thing is that if we had not thought about this and had not trusted the entire team, there would not have been time to take decisions.

Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi had come to address the 27th convocation organized by NDIM (New Delhi Institute of Management). He said that it is necessary to adapt to the occasion and crisis. Our aim in this journey is to increase coordination between armies, navies and air forces.,

The world will never stop: Army Chief

The Army Chief said, “Today when you move forward, remember that the world will never stand still. Markets will change, technology will grow and your own dreams will also change. You have to move forward at the same pace. This is the biggest strength. The effort to learn, the agility to adapt to the times, and the vision to move forward with the goal is the most effective. Change is not what happens to us, change is what we choose to become through it.

He said that updation is necessary for army restructuring and joint transformation. Now technology is redefining war and global power shift.

Operation Sindoor was the answer to Pahalgam terrorist attack

Operation Sindoor was a major operation carried out by India on the night of 6-7 May against the Indian Army in Pakistan and its occupied Kashmir. In this attack, the aim was to destroy the terrorist infrastructure present in these areas of Pakistan. This military action was taken by India in response to the Pahalgam attack. This campaign was based on indigenous technology on targeted targets. In this, the entire operation was carried out by monitoring it through drones and satellites.

Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi has clearly said that it is very important and will remain today or tomorrow. General Dwivedi’s statement came after the statement of Indian Air Force chief Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh in which he opposed the creation of theater command.

Apart from the release of a book written on Operation Sindoor in the country’s capital Delhi, the Chief of Army, while talking to the media on-camera, said that the theater command will be formed. Because it is very much needed. General Dwivedi also explained why the theater command is needed.

Army Chief gave information about the need for theater command

According to Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi, “In today’s time, the battle is not only fighting the army, but BSF, ITBP, ISRO, Civil Aviation, Railways and Intelligence agencies also participate in the fight. In such a situation, the Unity of Command is very important. So the country needs a (top) commander who can give directions to all.”

On the lines of the top armies of the world, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also insisted on creating a common and integrated command of the country’s armies (Army, Air Force and Navy). The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has targeted to create theater command even in its election manifesto of 2024.

The post of Chief of Defense Staff (CDS) was also created in the year 2019 so that the process of creating theater commands can be easier. The current CDS General Anil Chauhan and Navy Chief Admiral Dinesh Kumar Tripathi are also in favor of creating theater commands in the country.

What did the Air Force chief say about the theater command

However, the Air Force chief has lodged his objection to the creation of theater command. In the Ran-dialogue program held at Army War College, Mhow in Indore last month, Air Force Chief Air Chief Marshal AP Singh advocated to maintain an operational responsibility on the shoulders of the heads of the CDS and the three wings of the army instead of creating the theater command.

Air Force strength will be divided by the formation of theater command

The Air Force chief believes that the Air Force has very few fighter jets and other military aircraft. If the theater command is created, then the challenge of distributing the power of the Air Force will be revealed. Currently, there are 17 different commands of Army, Air Force and Navy in the country. Apart from this, there are three (03) shared commands. But under the reform in the defense sector, only 4-5 commands will remain when the Army, Air Force and Navy are formed.
