The Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Manoj Mukund Naravane conducted aerial inspection of the border posts in the Mana area of Chamoli district on Wednesday. After the inspection, the army chief met the officers and soldiers in Joshimath.
It is learnt that the general took stock of operational preparedness of the force during the visit. The helicopter of the General was slated to land at Mana on Wednesday morning but instead of landing there the chopper carrying the army chief conducted aerial survey of the forward posts. The visit of the COAS assumes significance amid continuing tension between India and China along the LAC. Uttarakhand shares about 350 km long boundary with China.
