Just days after reaching an agreement with China on de-escalation and patrolling along disputed areas in eastern Ladakh’s Demchok and Depsang, India is set to display its military prowess with a major tri-services exercise along its eastern border with China. This joint exercise, named “Poorvi Prahar,” will commence on November 10.
The exercise will showcase India’s latest advancements in surveillance technology, including the use of Swarm Drones, First Person View (FPV) Drones, and loiter munitions. According to a defence source, Poorvi Prahar aims to strengthen the coordination and readiness of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force for Integrated Joint Operations in challenging mountainous terrain.
