The Indian Army is all set to conduct a two-day seminar on Thursday and Friday at Gajraj Corps headquarters in Assam's Tezpur on diverse issues relating to India-China border, including disputed matters and Chinese strategic thought, officials said on Wednesday. Defence spokesman Lt. Col Mahendra Rawat said the seminar will be held to keep abreast of the evolving threat on the northern borders.
The continued push for operational preparedness along the northern borders has received a shot in the arm with high-priority fast paced infrastructure development in the border areas, infusion of latest technology in the Army and a vigorous discourse on doctrine and strategy, he pointed out.
Lieutenant General Rana Pratap Kalita, the Army's Eastern Command chief, arrived at Tezpur on Tuesday on a four-day visit to the Gajraj Corps, and to take part in the seminar-cum-panel discussion.
The Army commander is on a tour to the forward areas.
