During his inspection, General Dwivedi engaged with personnel from multiple security agencies, including the Air Force, the Border Security Force (BSF), and the Coast Guard, underscoring the importance of seamless coordination and inter-agency synergy to bolster national security. He also observed a series of operational battle drills, which highlighted the high level of coordination and tactical efficiency among the armed forces.
