Military Ethics and Civilian Impact

Lieutenant General Satish Dua (Retd) served as the Chief of Integrated Defence Staff and was also the Corps Commander of the Srinagar-based 15 Corps. He played a key role in planning and executing the Uri surgical strikes in Kashmir.

In this episode of the ANI Podcast with Smita Prakash, he shares insights on the evolving nature of drone warfare between India and Pakistan, and how India's air defence systems have responded. He also speaks about the deep sense of patriotism among Indian youth and their unwavering commitment to the country.

General Dua further explains why Pakistan has targeted temples, hospitals, and civilian infrastructure and contrasts it with India’s focused strikes on terror sites within Pakistan.
