Defence Min. Rajnath Singh: Target set for Indian Army to be future ready

Bengaluru: On the occasion of Army Day celebrations, defence minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday gave a target for the Indian Army to be future ready.
“Today, on the auspicious occasion of Army Day, I give a target on behalf of the government and society. That is – the Indian Army to be future ready,” he said.
The minister said today most of the world’s armies are engaged in their modernization and are working on their thoughts and ideas.
The Indian Army also is working on technology and organizational structure, and unparalleled research is going on, besides considering new platforms and equipment, Rajnath Singh said.
In this context, the defence minister asked the Indian Army to keep in mind tomorrow and work on their strategy, tactics and policies.
He also added, “Every today becomes yesterday, the next day. Whatever is old, it cannot remain effective for a long time. That’s why it is necessary that instead of thinking of today, think of tomorrow and the day-after – Think of 25 to 30 years ahead. Let’s all work together towards that,” he said.
This will pave the way for India’s security and prosperity, Rajnath Singh said. “Let us all together take India forward and build a developed and secure India from all sides,” he said. (UNI)
