The Tenth Chiefs’ Conclave commenced in New Delhi on Friday, emphasising professional wisdom sharing between the current Indian Army leadership and former Chiefs on contemporary security challenges, a Defence Ministry official said.
The two-day event includes former Chiefs of the Army Staff and Honorary Generals from the Nepali Army, reflecting the longstanding India-Nepal military relationship rooted in trust, shared values, and a common martial heritage. The conclave provides a platform for institutional continuity, professional dialogue, and knowledge transfer across generations.
