NDTV
Speaking at NDTV's maiden Defence Summit, Mr Singh said, "We have to be ready for war at all times... even in peacetime. We have to be ready."
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday underlined India's readiness for war in the face of multiple challenges along its international border. Speaking at NDTV's maiden Defence Summit, Mr Singh said, "We have to be ready for war at all times... even in peacetime. We have to be ready."
"Whether from land, air, or sea... if anyone attacks India our forces will respond strongly. We have never occupied anyone's land but, if anyone attacks us, we are in position to give a befitting reply."
Mr Singh's comments have been seen as a not-so-veiled reference to continuing tension with China in Kashmir and Ladakh, as well as the northeast.
