Army Chief Gen Bikram Singh today exhorted senior commanders in the Northern Theatre to further consolidate their gains in counter-insurgency operations achieved during the past two years.
Gen Singh had an interaction with Lt Gen K T Parnaik, GOC-in-C Northern Command, and other senior officers in the Command Theatre at Udhampur, 65 kms from here.
"Senior commanders should further consolidate on their gains in counter-insurgency operations achieved during the past two years," Gen Singh said during his brief visit to the Northern Command Headquarters.
Due to bad weather, the Army Chief's aircraft had to land at Jammu and he went to Udhampur by road.
Gen Singh was apprised of the current security situation and the operational preparedness of the Northern Command.
