The Air Force is decided to deliver and is well prepared and suitably deployed to reply to any contingency, IAF chief, Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria said here on Saturday.
Addressing a Combined Graduation Parade (CGP) at Air Force Academy (AFA) Dundigal here he said the air force will never let the supreme sacrifice made by our brave soldiers at Galwan in Ladakh enter vain.
“…it should be very clear that we are well prepared and suitably deployed to reply to any contingency. I assure the state that we are determined to deliver and can never let the sacrifice of our braves of Galwan enter vain,” he said.
His statement comes within the wake of 20 Indian soldiers losing their lives during a violent clash between the troops of India and China at Galwan Valley in Ladakh on Monday night.
“The security scenario in our region mandates that our soldiers remain prepared and vigilant in the least times. the event at LAC Ladakh may be a small snapshot of what we are required to handle at short notice. In spite of unacceptable Chinese actions after agreements reached during military talks and resultant loss of life all efforts are endeavoured to make sure that the present situation at the LAC is resolved peacefully,” Bhadauria said.
The gallant actions of our soldiers who lost their lives during the confrontation with the Chinese forces has demonstrated the resolve to guard the sovereignty of our country at any cost, he asserted.
