India's Chief of Defense Staff, General Anil Chauhan, stated that despite economic challenges, the Pakistani army remains a significant threat.
He openly acknowledged that Pakistan's military strength hasn't diminished, despite its economic difficulties.
The history behind General Chauhan's recognition of Pakistan's armed forces underscores their unique position in the region.
In February 2019, India faced a formidable response in Operation Swift Retort, deterring further aggression.
General Chauhan emphasized the power of Pakistan's armed forces, noting that both neighboring countries are equipped with nuclear capabilities and maintain strong bilateral ties with other nations.
General Chauhan highlighted the necessity for India to modernize its weaponry, incorporate advanced technology, and adapt its strategies for warfare.
His remarks followed the Indian Army's recent large-scale exercise, 'Bharat Shakti,' conducted near the India-Pakistan international border in Pokhran.
