Slow Decision-Making Myth Shattered By Operation Sindoor: Army Chief

Delhi: Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi attended the launch of the book ‘Red Lines Redrawn: Operation Sindoor and India’s New Normal’, where he highlighted the significance of Operation Sindoor in shaping India’s military posture. He said the operation proved that jointness among the armed forces is now a reality, executed successfully under pressure rather than discussed in theory. Calling it the most successful operation, the Army Chief noted that long-standing assumptions about India’s slow decision-making and extended mobilisation timelines were effectively overturned. He also underlined the role of government-led economic measures that supported the forces throughout the operation, stressing the need for resilient supply chains and Atmanirbharta to ensure long-term security.
