Indian Army conducts field exercises in Arunachal to boost operational readiness

In a bid to strengthen joint preparedness and enhance mission efficiency in high-altitude terrain, troops of the Indian Army's Dao Division carried out a series of coordinated training exercises across forward areas of Arunachal Pradesh, focusing on operational proficiency, inter-agency coordination, and adaptability under challenging conditions.

The training modules were designed to refine tactical responses, improve teamwork, and validate standard operating procedures (SOPs) through simulated operational drills in realistic field environments, a defence spokesperson said here on Tuesday.

The exercises also tested integrated planning, logistics management, and communication systems, ensuring seamless synchronisation among participating units and agencies, Guwahati-based defence spokesperson Lt Col Mahendra Rawat said in a statement.


The emphasis remained on operational precision, resilience, and rapid response capability in diverse terrains, he said.

The spokesperson added that the coordinated drills reaffirm the Army's commitment to maintaining a high state of readiness and professionalism, consistent with its operational responsibilities in the strategically significant frontier region.

"Through such regular and realistic training, the formation continues to uphold the Indian Army's ethos of preparedness and excellence," he added.
