Be prepared for the future..,Narendra Modi to Armed forces
Prime Minister NarendraModi on Friday eulogize the armed forces and asked them to be prepared for a
future where security challenges will be less predictable and the enemy maybe invisible.
The Prime Minister asked the forces to prepare for a changing world, which demanded new thinking on our part with regard to economic, diplomatic and security policies.
" we are facing a future where security challenges will be less predictable; situations will evolve and change swiftly; and, technological changes will make responses more difficult to keep pace with," NarendraModi said in his address to the Combined Commanders' Conference .
"The threats may be known, but the enemy may be invisible. Domination of cyber space will become increasingly important. Control of space may become as critical as that of land, air and sea. Full scale wars may become rare, but force will remain an instrument of deterrence and influencing behaviour, and the duration of conflicts will be shorter," the PM said.
The Armed Forces have always vindicated the faith and confidence that people of India placed in them, whether it is for our nation's security or for relief in times of natural calamities, Narendra Modi said.
