A two-day Commanders Conclave of Eastern Air Command (EAC) has been inaugurated by the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Chief Marshal BS Dhanoa (PVSM AVSM YSM VM ADC) on Friday at HQ EAC, Upper Shillong.
Air Marshal RD Mathur (AVSM VSM), Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief, EAC welcomed the CAS.
CAS Dhanoa, during his address to the commanders on the inaugural day of the conclave, exhorted them to be in operational readiness to take on any task to safeguard the skies of the Nation.
He discussed the prevailing security scenario and emphasized on the need for all air warriors to remain ever vigilant so that any attempt to degrade the operational efficiency of Indian Air Force could be easily thwarted.
He cautioned that while constant vigil must be maintained to counter the physical threat, at the same time one should also guard against becoming a target to the propagation of false information through social media.
He reiterated that the IAF is in the process of transformation through modernization as well as upgradation of existing fleets and weapon systems. However, this also brings with it some challenges. There is an urgent requirement that all IAF personnel adapt themselves to the rapidly changing inventory and associated high technology.
He also conveyed his appreciation on the successful completion of various exercises conducted by HQ EAC.
