Lt. Gen. MV Suchindra Kumar Reviews Operational Readiness of Fire and Fury Corps in Ladakh
This visit underscores the ongoing commitment of the Indian Army to ensure the security and preparedness of its forces in key border areas.
Lt. Gen. MV Suchindra Kumar, Army Commander, Northern Command, recently visited the Fire and Fury Corps, also known as the 14th Corps, to assess their operational readiness amid the ongoing security challenges along the India-China border in the Ladakh region.
During his visit, the Army Commander was briefed on both the training protocols and the current security dynamics.
Praising the troops for their operational readiness, Lt. Gen. Suchindra Kumar commended their efforts and encouraged them to maintain a high state of morale. The Fire and Fury Corps, raised on September 1, 1999, following the Kargil conflict, plays a pivotal role in bolstering India’s defense capabilities in this strategically crucial area.
The corps, responsible for the defense of the Siachen Glacier—known as the world’s highest battlefield—faces adversaries on both the Pakistani and Chinese fronts, making its role critical for national security.
The insignia of the Fire and Fury Corps, featuring two crossed flaming thunderbolts with a sword in between, symbolizes power, strength, and success, uniquely representing the valor of the 14th Corps.
This visit underscores the ongoing commitment of the Indian Army to ensure the security and preparedness of its forces in key border areas.
