India's 'preparation for future war', what does it indicate?

Wars are going on in different parts of the world. Meanwhile, India’s relations with neighboring countries have deteriorated. According to many analysts, New Delhi’s relations with Bangladesh are now ‘at rock bottom’ after the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government. In such a situation, the defense minister of the country has called on the Indian army to prepare for the future war, which is also being discussed on social media.

India’s Defense Minister Rajnath Singh urged commanders of India’s armed forces to “analyze the current situation in Bangladesh” at the Joint Commanders’ Conference in Lucknow on Thursday (September 5), Indian media outlet Telegraph reported.

He also urged to keep an eye on the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars and to be ready to deal with anything “unexpected”. But suddenly why such a call?

Addressing the event, Rajnath Singh emphasized the need for a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the situation on the China border and other neighboring countries, which pose a ‘challenge to peace and stability’.

According to the report, Rajnath spoke of preparing for the challenges India may face in ‘future wars’ by emphasizing the importance of developing a joint military approach and emphasizing a coordinated, swift and proportionate response to counter provocations.

India’s Defense Minister said, ‘Despite the global turmoil, India is enjoying a rare peace and the country is moving forward peacefully. But we have to be careful because of the increasing challenges.

He also said, we have to focus on the present. We need to keep an eye on the activities happening around us today and focus on being future oriented. For this our national security must be strong.

Rajnath Singh also said that India is a ‘peace loving country’, but the armed forces must be ‘ready for war to protect peace’.

According to many analysts, apart from the border conflict with China, India’s relations with other neighboring countries are not going well at present. But the country will engage in a direct war with someone – there is no such danger considering the overall situation.
