ARMY EVER READY
India has acquired so many accomplishments that in comparison to many developed nations it is in no way lagging if different parameters are considered. As far as the army is concerned the ‘men in green’ in India constitutes a formidable force which figures in the top five slots of list of strongest armies of the world when compared on different accounts. The army has achieved such a level of proficiency that it can take on any challenge head on without any difficulty. The changing scenario of warfare across the world has shaken many countries as far as their military capabilities are concerned because the ongoing Russian-Ukraine conflict has shown how difficult it could be to engage in military entanglement with other nations. India is fortunate enough that the BJP Government led by dynamic Prime Minister Narendra Modi has bolstered the army through various proactive steps and by changing the conventional policies that acted as bottlenecks in the way of modernization of this unique and vibrant force, which has made India proud on many occasions. As newly-appointed Army Chief Gen Manoj Pande, who took over the charge after the superannuation of former Army Chief Gen M M Naravane, has said that his priority would be to ensure very high standards of operational preparedness to face current, contemporary and future security challenges, one can gauge well that morale of army is high as ever and country could rely on the brave-hearts who have always shown grit and proved their mettle to make every Indian proud and sturdy. There is another characteristic of the army in India that it always focuses on carrying out reforms, restructuring and transformation to enhance operational and functional efficacy. Under the new world order there are a number of challenges before the army but the professional level which it has achieved makes it a force to reckon with because no challenge is as big which the Indian army cannot take head on. The army happens to be one of the most important possessions of any country and fortunately India happens to be one of the largest armies across the world and every Indian should feel proud of it. It is for sure that the Indian army can effectively deal with all possible security challenges confronting the nation.
