Must be ready for grey zone and hybrid warfare: Rajnath Singh
Tuesday, 12 November 2024 () India's Defence Minister Rajnath Singh emphasized the need for 'adaptive defence' to combat evolving threats like terrorism, cyber attacks, and hybrid warfare. He highlighted the government's initiatives to strengthen national security, including establishing the Chief of Defence Staff and fostering international defense partnerships. Singh stressed the importance of anticipating future threats and proactively adapting defense strategies to counter them effectively.
In a significant step towards enhancing defense relations, Russia and India have agreed to further strengthen their military cooperation, including participation in joint exercises and strategic knowledge-sharing. This agreement, made during a meeting of the India-Russia Inter-Governmental Commission on Military and Military-Technical Cooperation (IRIGC-M&MTC) in Moscow, is aimed at improving operational coordination between the two forces. The announcement comes just days ahead of Indian Minister of Defense Rajnath Singh's visit to Moscow, where he will hold high-level talks and commission a stealth frigate for the Indian Navy. This move further solidifies the longstanding defense partnership between India and Russia, which includes joint development of advanced military systems like the BrahMos cruise missile, the S-400 air-defense system, and more.
