The Indian Army will host a two-day military seminar, RAN SAMWAD-2025, from August 26 in Dr Ambedkar Nagar, Madhya Pradesh, focused on sharing first-hand operational insights and reflections from modern battlefields, the Ministry of Defence announced on Monday.
The event will bring together senior leadership from the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force to discuss operational lessons and future challenges in warfare.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh is expected to deliver the plenary address on the concluding day, while Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Anil Chauhan will open the dialogue on the first day. The event has been organised by the Headquarters Integrated Defence Staff and Centre for Joint Warfare Studies, in coordination with the Army Training Command, the ministry said.
The event will allow serving officers to lead discussions based on operational experience rather than academic theory, with the focus on topics such as information warfare, grey zone threats, integrated operations, and future combat technologies.
