“Our (Indian) officers and soldiers are the finest in the world and will make the entire nation proud,” the Army chief said adding that “The situation along line of actual control (LAC) is slightly tense but all the precautions for the safety and security have been taken to ensure that our (India’s) integrity remains safeguarded”.
