Interacted with 49 Colonel-ranked officers of Higher Command Course-55, today at Leh, on their visit to Ladakh, which presents a living example of civil-military synergy, where Administration and Army stand shoulder-to-shoulder in nation-building.
Shared Ladakh's transformation since becoming a Union Territory, under the leadership of Hon’ble PM Shri @narendramodi ji, in terms of road infrastructure boost, ensuring year-round connectivity, developments in power, renewable energy, drinking water, health, education and telecom sectors and the resultant massive tourism surge in Ladakh.
Exhorted the officers to come together to strengthen border infrastructure, improve lives in remote areas and advance inclusive development as we march towards “Viksit Bharat 2047”.
Proud that Ladakh leads with 6% reservation for Ex-Servicemen, 20% for Agniveers and induction of veterans into Environment Protection Force. I am confident that this spirit of civil-military cooperation will remain the cornerstone of Ladakh’s progress, security and prosperity.
Best wishes to all the officers for their future roles.
