Responding to a comment by former Strategic Forces Command chief Vice-Admiral SPS Cheema (Retd) on the blurring of lines between conventional and nuclear conflict, the Army chief said he is thankful to the former Navy officer for coming to him a year-and-a-half back. “Since then, in all our wargames, we have been discussing all these issues behind closed doors. Even issues considered taboo earlier are being discussed to build awareness. This is because nuclear conflict is a reality along both our borders.”
