Army Chief
Let us tell you that the then Army Chief Manoj Pandey was going to retire at the end of May last month. But the government had given a one-month extension to General Manoj Pandey six days before his retirement. After the one-month extension, speculations were being made that the government could give Manoj Pandey an extension for one year. But now the Defense Ministry has announced that the next Army Chief will be Lieutenant General Upendra Dwivedi. But do you know what powers the Army Chief has and what decisions related to war he can take?

The Army Chief can register his agreement or disagreement in all the major decisions related to the army. He can also give suggestions to the Defense Ministry to bring any change in the army. But the question is, can the Army Chief give orders for war in any situation? According to the information, the Defense Ministry takes the decision in case of a war-like situation with any country. However, the Army Chief is also present in the discussion on this subject and gives his important suggestions. But it would be wrong to say that the Army Chief can take a decision alone and ask the soldiers to go to war. Actually, every place has its own rules, which all the officers have to follow.
