He was speaking at the Manekshaw Centre, marking the 150th birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.
The youth must have their role in multiple fields, including think-tanks, laboratories ,and the battlefield, the COAS further said and then emphasised on the evolving nature of warfare and the responses needed in this scenario.
"Warfare is increasingly becoming non-kinetic and non-contact," the Army Chief said, and, therefore, the response demands military strength, intellectual prowess, and moral preparedness.
