Chamoli DM now says the district had “no role” in Devbhoomi Mahotsav programmes or payments, that the Army organised it, and a notice has been issued for holding it at Badrinath without prior permission.
His own office files say otherwise.😱
08.09.2026 — DM Gaurav Kumar’s आदेश appoints CDO Chamoli as Nodal Officer for देवभूमि सांस्कृतिक महोत्सव-2026 at Badrinath Tourist Arrival Plaza (19–20 Sep) and directs him to ensure all arrangements.
09.09.2026 — Same office letters (8706 / 8796) to SP, CDO, CMO, Tourism, Nagar Palika Badrinath, GMVN, CO Garhwal Scouts Jyotirmath, transport & others: coordination review meeting for successful organisation of the same festival.
Meeting called 10.09.2026, 1130 hrs, under CDO’s chairmanship. Army unit’s 11 Aug letter is cited as the reference.
CM Dhami attended the closing as chief guest and publicly congratulated Army and district administration.
After the DJ / “bazaaru sanskriti” row, the same DM issues a notice to the Army and claims the district only put up scheme stalls.
If the content was unfit for Badrinath Dham, the nodal officer and the 10 Sep coordination meeting should answer first. Documents first. After-the-fact distancing later.
What's the reality ? The documents state otherwise
Why are you allowing @ChamoliDm to put out all these lies @pushkardhami
Is targeting the Commanding Officer the easiest way out @rajnathsingh@PMOIndia
If things were eso simple, why has the @ChamoliDm deleted his tweet https://t.co/4p6PlKLlOY
And what has been done or will be done against the DM Gaurav Kumar against this falsehoods ?
Is this how you want the nation to see your army ?
Sir respectfully wonder why you are disappointed at the formulation from COAS ?
His exact words were -
‘However, I strongly feel, through all this clutter, one reality that does not change: land will always be the one and only tangible and useful factor of success. Victory was, is, and will always be measured in territorial terms, and that territory will be occupied, secured, and defended only by the force’.
He talked of land being tangible and useful factor of success related to obfuscation of war related narratives.
Haven't we all seen this in recent conflicts from Russo-Ukraine War to the ongoing US-Iran War wherein absence of clear victory in land domain has led to no clear victor ?
Waiting for an answer DM Saab @ChamoliDm
Also, when will you step in to call out the falsehood of the DM ? @pushkardhami
Lastly, @suryacommand why no clarification/ statement till now ?
Sir, Op Sindoor measured a limited aim - hit terror camps after Pahalgam, not seize ground. That does not reset the metric for a border war.
The COAS did not define victory vs China as occupying Aksai Chin. That maybe your defined test, not of the MoD as of date.
In the recent Galwan conflict, Kailash operations were decisive by taking and holding ground - without a general war.
The statement by the CAS about ‘the part of military power that has delivered what was required is air power’ substantially seeked to devalue
(hopefully inadvertently); the effective targeting of 7 out of 9 terror camps by the Indian Army on the first day and inflicting ~155 casualties on the Pak Army which is incontestable.
The balance points about the “primary role in warfare” that “did the trick” and will “continue to expand” as a standing rule overstates one operation and is best a Narrative obfuscation of the ‘ON GROUND’ realities.
No. As Op Sindoor showed, territory may not define victory at all.
By citing it as a permanent marker of victory we are effectively ruling out any victory against China.
No MSC will ever be able to create a force asymmetry as needed to achieve its full penetration potential. Not with beter air and ground Lgs with PLA as well as ISR superiority. Not ever.
At most, local asymmetries (a company vs a section at MOST...maybe a Battalion vs a platoon) would be achieved by India. What objectives can be so captured you would know best sir.
So we can never win against China.
But that's not true.
Feel free to contest what CAS said.
Sir, respectfully - you are right that victory is defined by the political Desired End State. Clausewitzian principle is not in dispute sir.
The COAS was stating what remains the measurable outcome once the war starts.
He was speaking about the fog of narratives and “wars with pause” - where claims of success can be spun, but who holds the ground at the end is indisputably victorious.
If the political aim is a limited strike, you stop when that aim is met. If the aim is to hold, restore or deny a claim line on a 3,488 km LAC and a live LoC, the account is still closed on the ground. That is the distinction the COAS was making - not that every war must end in occupation of the enemy’s capital.
Sir, the COAS never said India must occupy all of PoJK/GB or Aksai Chin before victory can be declared. That stretches his words.
Exact line during the NDTV Defence Summit 2026 was;
‘Through all this clutter, one reality that does not change: land will always be the one and only tangible and useful factor of success. Victory was, is, and will always be measured in territorial terms and that territory will be occupied, secured and defended only by the force’.
📍Context was narrative fog and ‘wars with pause’. He cited the 16 Dec 1971 surrender photo because modern conflicts often lack that clear end-point. India’s primary threats remain continental. Previous COAS Gen Dwivedi had also remarked that with a 2.5-front problem, ‘land will remain the currency of victory’.
Service chiefs routinely state their domain’s centrality without ifs and buts.
👉 CAS ACM AP Singh has been equally direct in his talk during Ran Samvad, Aug 2025 wherein he stated that Op Sindoor established the ‘primacy of air power’. Quote: ‘Today the Air Force has assumed a primary role in warfare. We are now employing air power in an offensive manner, and this role will continue to expand’.
👉 He also stated during the 22nd Subroto Mukherjee Seminar, Jan 2026: ‘The part of military power that has delivered what was required is air power… attacking bases in Pakistan in a matter of a few hours… bring them to their knees. It was the air power which did the trick, and that has to be remembered’.
✅ So sir, you were right in stating that - “Absolutist statements and maximalist positions are invariably contentious” 😃
🔷 In a typical conventional wars scenario, the other services of our armed forces will create conditions and may have a ‘transient primary role’. The force that occupies, secures and defends the ground still closes the account on territory.

Ally,
If I replied after nearly four hours, take it that I took my time amongst other things to understand the context of your points - which, in my assessment, were misplaced. That is why I responded as I did.
I also watched the full coverage of the COAS speech. The contextual framing of land as the ultimate marker of victory therefore lands exactly right 🫡
What I was responding to was your linking of that land-centric framing with one successful conflict, one successful battle and one successful war (you chose one each) - and hence I explained the framing for each separately 🇮🇳
Understanding of English is secondary to understanding of strategic truth. I will leave it at that.
If any part of the language used came across as trashy, my apologies - from one veteran to another 🙏
Do read this slowly and do take help if required 🙂
