New Delhi: Dokalam controversy may have ended but the danger prospects are not over. This can be judged by the statement of Army Chief Bipin Rawat. The Army Chief cautioned against China and Pakistan, "Not only the army, but the whole nation should be prepared to fight against China and Pakistan."
We must be prepared for every situation
Chief of the Army Bipin Rawat said, "During the recent Dokalam dispute, we saw how our opponents started cyber, media, psychological and info warfare before fighting the soldiers directly. Although this did not translate into a straight war, we should be prepared for every situation. We are surrounded by enemies on both sides."
Not only war forces, the nation has to fight:
The Army Chief said, "On believing that if we increase our military strength then war will not happen, it is wrong. Because the war in the future is not necessarily between the armies. Recently, in the Dokalam controversy, it was seen that before the war, China started the Psychological Warfare. That is, not only the war forces but also the nation has to fight."
Emphasis on the integration of all three armies:
The Chief of the Army also stressed the integration of all the three organs of Army, Air Force and Navy. It is worth mentioning that China's last year itself has unified its armies and made the theater-command.
Referring to Pakistan, the Army Chief said, "Pakistan wants to take advantage of the ongoing tension on our northern border (Yan China border). We can never have peace or peace with Pakistan. Because it has been filled in the minds of Pakistan's army, politics and general people that India will make pieces of Pakistan. That is why Pakistan takes the support of pseudo-war and propaganda."
