The appointment of a new CDS is important to speed up the theaterisation drive which would boost the synergy among the Indian Armed Forces, and utilise the military’s resources for future wars and operations.
New Delhi, Sep 30: With General Anil Chauhan all set to take over as India’s new Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) today, the key focus would be on the theaterisation drive.
General Chauhan takes over as the CDS nine months after General Bipin Rawat’s death in a chopper crash. On Wednesday, the government announced the name of General Chauhan as the new CDS of India. The new CDS retired as the Eastern Army Commander on May 31, 2021. He was also the military adviser to the National Security Council before he was appointed as the new CDS.
