Indian Army remains prepared for all military contingencies

Amid the Tawang scuffle, the Indian Army remains prepared for all military contingencies. It also said the Army is primarily focused on maintaining its operational preparedness in sync with India’s desire to ensure stability and dominance along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), and Line of Control (LoC) while constantly monitoring and reviewing emerging threats to national security.

Referring to the situation along the LoC (with Pakistan), it said the situation has been relatively peaceful with both Indian and Pakistani armies observing ceasefire understanding since February last year. “As compared to 4,645 ceasefire violations during its peak in 2020, only three minor incidents have been recorded since the understanding in February 2021 with only one incident during 2022,” the ministry said.
