Themed ‘Sashakt aur Surakshit Bharat: Transforming the Armed Forces’, the conference will serve as the pivotal platform for undertaking internal ‘process reforms’ within the armed forces.
Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Anil Chauhan will inaugurate the Conference on September 4, which brings together the apex level hierarchy from the Ministry of Defence and the Armed Forces.
The two-day deliberations will focus on analysing the impact of regional and global geo-political disruptions and the commensurate demands that are likely to be placed upon the reforms being undertaken by the armed forces.
Preparing for future wars, jointness and integration among the constituent services and technology absorption, riding on the Government’s ‘Atmanirbharta’ initiative to achieve self-reliance in Defence, will be areas receiving prime emphasis.
The JCC is planned to be developed as a crucial forum for exchange of ideas, strategies and best practices among India’s top military leadership, reinforcing the country’s commitment to a strong and safer future and achieving strategic autonomy in defence. (UNI)
