The Trishakti Corps, whose preparedness was reviewed on 7 November 2026, is headquartered at which place?
- A.Tezpur, Assam
- B.Sukna, West Bengal
- C.Bagdogra, West Bengal
- D.Dimapur, Nagaland
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Sukna, West Bengal. Raksha Mantri Rajnath Singh reviewed the operational preparedness of the Trishakti Corps at Sukna, where he was briefed on infrastructure development along the Line of Actual Control and on the deployment of advanced military equipment and emerging technologies. Option A is wrong because Tezpur was not named in connection with this review. Option C is a trap worth noting: the minister did visit Air Force Station Bagdogra on the same day to interact with Air Force personnel, but Bagdogra is an Air Force station and not the headquarters of the Trishakti Corps. Option D is wrong because Dimapur was not mentioned at all. The Trishakti Corps is the 33 Corps of the Indian Army, and the officers present at the review included Chief of the Army Staff General Dhiraj Seth, Eastern Command chief Lt Gen VMB Krishnan and the Corps Commander Lt Gen Man Raj Singh Mann.
