Army Chief visits forward post in Siachen

Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi visited a forward post in Siachen, the world’s highest battlefield, and interacted with the troops of 18 JAK RIF.

“The visit was emotionally resonant as it brought the COAS back to the very battalion he was once commissioned into and had the honour to command,” an official said. He further said, “In a truly touching moment filled with nostalgia, the COAS reunited with seven Junior Commissioned Officers (JCOs) who had served under his leadership in the battalion as young soldiers.”

“Amidst the icy heights of Siachen, the COAS relived cherished memories, shared heartfelt moments and celebrated the unbreakable bond of camaraderie and timeless brotherhood with the soldiers,” the spokesperson added.
