New Delhi, June 20

Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria today said that the IAF was well prepared and suitably deployed to respond to any contingency along the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

The Air Force Chief was speaking after reviewing the passing-out parade of officers at the IAF Academy, Dundigal, around 40 km from Hyderabad. “I assure the nation that we are determined to deliver and will never let the sacrifice of our braves of Galwan go in vain,” he said.

“I salute the act of Col Santosh Babu and his men in defending the LAC. It shows our resolve,” he said.

In spite of unacceptable Chinese actions in violation of agreements reached during military talks and the resultant loss of life, all efforts were underway to ensure that the current situation along LAC was resolved peacefully, he added. — TNS
