I hope that it has not been held up by huge egos. Joint and equal ranked Officers must surely bang heads together on this and get it sorted out. Now Pakistan is on the back foot, due to 'operations' somewhere else, this is exactly the right time for India to strengthen LoC and make it watertight. "While the cat's away the mouse will play"Dave
There was a discussion that the IBG would involve assets (about 70 to 80 squadrons, I think) from the Air Force, which means joint operations. Yet the IAF chief insisted that the IA and IAF units, even though working together, would still report to their service organisations instead of a single entity.
I believe there was some heartburn about that. Since then, it is notable that a Joint Operations Doctrine has been published, though I have no clue if it allows the COld STart objectives to be realised
