For every nation, it is imperative to have a system of robust and vigilant security forces to defend its citizens, its territory, and its sovereignty: for India, the Indian Army is that solid pillar upon which the nation is able to build and develop. Not only does the Army assist with protecting the country from external threats by patrolling its borders, but when disasters or emergencies occur, the Army provides rapid assistance to the population affected in the best manner possible.
As a part of the force, the Indian Army is stationed on several different types of terrain, including snow-covered mountains, hot, barren desert, thick forests, and very active regions of high conflict, providing 24-hour a day, seven days a week support to the nation of India while also suffering extreme hardships.
