During the visit, General Dwivedi interacted with the personnel of the Indian Army and the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) and praised their exceptional dedication and resilience while performing duties in harsh and challenging conditions.
Earlier on Sunday, General Dwivedi hailed Operation Sindoor as a powerful testament to India's unity, resolve, and self-confidence.
Highlighting the operation's significance, the COAS emphasised its meticulous planning and execution, calling it a "worthy answer to terrorism".
The COAS also put a poignant cultural note, stating, "I want to say one more thing: Due to the name of Operation Sindoor, whenever any mother, sister, or daughter applies Sindhoor, she proudly remembers our soldiers. Terrorism will get a befitting reply every time. We are alert, capable and always fully prepared."
