The two-month long exercise, aimed at training commanders and soldiers in their offensive tasks, concluded today.

While interacting with the Army commander, the participating troops conveyed their satisfaction on the content and conduct of the exercise, defence spokesperson Lt Col Manish Ojha said.

"The exercise validated the concept of speedy mobilisation and dispersed deployment of offensive forces with the ability to converge at a point of decision, he said.
