Which document is to be released by the Raksha Mantri at the Army Commanders' Conference that began on 21 October 2026?
- A.Joint Doctrine for Amphibious Operations
- B.Land Warfare Doctrine
- C.Maritime Security Strategy
- D.Air Power Doctrine
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Land Warfare Doctrine. A key highlight of the conference is its release by the Raksha Mantri, and the document is intended to give the Indian Army an overarching framework for meeting the challenges created by the changing character of warfare and by future conflicts. Option A is wrong because no joint amphibious doctrine was listed for release at this forum. Option C is wrong because a maritime strategy would belong to the Navy and not to the Army's apex commanders' conference, even though the Chief of the Naval Staff is among those delivering talks there. Option D is wrong because an air power doctrine is an Air Force document and does not figure in this conference, whose other releases are the annual United Nations Journal and the awards given by the Chief of the Army Staff.
