Hyderabad: Chief of Army Staff General Dalbir Singh said that the pace of modernisation in the Indian Army has been accelerated and efforts were being made to replace old and obsolete machinery and equipment with new ones. The results of these efforts will be seen in two to three years, he said, while addressing the valedictory function of the Higher Defence Management course at the College of Defence Management in Secunderabad on Wednesday.
“The Indian Army will overcome the shortage of infrastructure soon,” he said during the function. The Army Chief said that the defence forces need to be vigilant across borders as the ‘neighbouring country’ is indulging in a proxy war with the help of non-state actors and accumulating its forces at the borders.He expressed confidence that training in identifying cognitive biases during the course would help the participating officers take timely action and positive decisions as senior military leaders.
The Army Chief awarded degree certificates in Master of Management Studies by Osmania University and a certificate of Advanced Course in Management by the All India Management Association to students.
