Guwahati: Indian armed forces are continuing their ‘battle readiness’ preparations in the difficult terrains of Northeast India. Such a challenging exercise was recently concluded in the region where the tri-services took part for better coordination during war time.
Exercise Poorvi Prachand Prahar showcases the seamless integration of the Indian Army with the Indian Air Force, Indian Navy and ITBP to conduct high-altitude, all-terrain operations in the Eastern theatre. The exercise validates joint preparedness, coordinated manoeuvres and the ability of the Armed Forces to operate as a unified combat team in complex and dynamic operational environments. The exercise was aimed at better coordination between the special forces of the tri services during emergency and war like situations.
Elite units including Special Forces, MARCOS, Garud, Bhairav Battalion and Arunachal Scouts played a pivotal role as force multipliers, extending the reach, precision and impact of ground operations. Cutting-edge technologies such as night-enabled, all-weather FPVs, swarm drones and advanced unmanned aerial systems operating across the electromagnetic spectrum delivered real-time surveillance, precision targeting and synchronised fires. These capabilities were integrated with manoeuvre elements, attack helicopters and the composite DIVYASTRA battery to enhance battlefield effects.
The exercise demonstrates a fully synchronised, technology-driven defensive battle, highlighting rapid mobilisation, tri-service interoperability and multi-domain coordination. It reflects the Armed Forces’ high level of operational readiness, adaptability to emerging threats and commitment to remaining future-ready along the northern borders.
