Top global powers, including Russia, US, France and some of the friendly neighborhood countries such as Bangladesh, Myanmar and Nepal will engage in war games with Indian Army.

The exercises, mostly focusing on counter-i n s u r g e n c y a n d a n t i-terrorism manoeuvres, will help in honing the skills of Indian and other friendly troops in different scenarios, and improve their interoperability, as required under United Nations multinational joint military efforts for world peace.

Indian Armys counter-insurgency skills are much sought after by global powers due to the fivedecade experience that we have gained in the northeastern states and Jammu and Kashmir,the officers said.

With the US, the Indian Armys mechanised infantry forces will hold an exercise, Yudh Abhyas, in Rajasthan this year, when they will both field their tanks and armoured personnel carrier.

Most other exercises are still in the works and the venues and dates will be finalised soon, officers said. The other nations to join the exercises this year will be Mongolia, Bangladesh, Nepal, Australia, and Central Asian nations.
