- In this episode of The Perspective, I will take you through the various branches of the Indian Army.
- This will help you to understand better how the Indian Army is organized and how it functions.
- Each branch of the Indian Army has an area of expertise and soldiers are trained in specific areas.
- Various branches are combined together in optimal proportion to create a cohesive fighting formation.
- The various branches of the army are divided into three broad categories depending on their role and specialization. These are:
(1) Combat Arms
(2) Combat Support Arms
(3) Services.

This might a bit basic for many here but posting it for wider reach and understanding of readers of the forum.

Yup this has been pretty conistent criticism of the IA or other branches of the military by the west. In the past people brushed these aside as bogus claims but there is too much such chatter to not have its merit. This makes me want to believe the report by that American who spent time on an Indian navy ship and had pretty extreme criticisms of how it functions. It was also that time when every other month there was some major accident involving the navy, from fires to ships capsizing/colliding. Things have definitely changed post 2017 on that regard

Exercise Dharma Guardian-2022 Culminates at Belgaum (Karnataka)


Posted On: 10 MAR 2022 5:12PM by PIB Delhi



Ex DHARMA GUARDIAN-2022, an annual exercise between Indian Army and Japanese Ground Self Defence Force which commenced on 27 February 2022 at Foreign Training Node, Belgaum successfully culminated on 10 March 2022 after twelve days of intense joint military training, providing an unique opportunity of achieving synergy between Armed Forces of both the Nations which is focused towards strengthening the timeless bonds of India - Japan friendship. The exercise also provided a platform for professional and cultural learning as well as social interactions which in-turn broadened their horizon towards knowledge and cooperation aiming towards co-existence as one in the Indo-Pacific Region.


The conduct of this exercise, which covered a vast spectrum from cross training & combat conditioning in field conditions, to sports and cultural exchanges has been a grand success. The two armies rubbed shoulders attending various demonstrations, at firing ranges and during various tactical exercises. Both contingents not only shared their expertise on contemporary subjects of counter terrorism operations, but also utilised this opportunity to share their experiences on exploiting disruptive technologies like Drone and Anti-Drone weapons.


“Exercise Dharma Guardian” will enhance the level of defence cooperation between the Indian Army and Japanese Ground Self Defence Forces and will act as a catalyst for many such joint programs in future to further consolidate on the gains achieved.

This is PURE GOLD

नोएडा की सड़क पर कल रात 12 बजे मुझे ये लड़का कंधे पर बैग टांगें बहुत तेज़ दौड़ता नज़र आया

मैंने सोचा
किसी परेशानी में होगा , लिफ़्ट देनी चाहिए

बार बार लिफ़्ट का ऑफ़र किया पर इसने मना कर दिया

वजह सुनेंगे तो आपको इस बच्चे से प्यार हो जाएगा

More copium today.

Seems like finally MOD Babu and netas understood that blacklisting is shooting in our own foot.

Hopefully the regressive law will be taken down and the Augusta Westland saga will end, ushering a new era in Indian defence!!
