Unsettled borders need to be fixed: Army Vice Chief

Lack of adequate employment opportunities, unsettled borders and its position in the human development index are some of the weaknesses India needs to address to realise the vision of Viksit Bharat-2047, Vice Chief of the Army Staff Lt General NS Raja Subramani has said.

Speaking on “National Security and Bharat @ 2047” at Surat LitFest on Friday, Lt General Subramani said the India of 2047 should have integrated its response mechanism, resolved its internal problems in J&K and the Northeast, as well as Left-wing extremism (LWE) to ensure harmony.

Lt General Subramani said, “It is our responsibility to work on internal conflicts in society, reduce tensions and move forward towards development. Only then will internal security also improve.”
