Interacting with officers and men, Gen Bajwa appreciated them for continued vigil and remarkable operational preparedness. He emphasised upon troops to extend all-out support to local population affected by unprovoked Indian ceasefire violations.

“Remain steadfast, discharge your duties with utmost sincerity and devotion,” the COAS remarked.
