    ARMY DESIGN BUREAU 1ST COMPENDIUM ON SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEM STATEMENTS APRIL 2018 FOREWORD In this era of fast evolving world of technology, cost efficient development of indigenous capabilities, products and technologies, would serve to be the real force multiplier in giving our armed forces the dening edge in future battleelds. The relentless encouragement and enabling policy environment provided by the Government of India (GoI) through series of reforms over the last few years has served as impetus to industry to innovate and work on development of indigenous technologies, products and solutions. Under the watchful eyes of the Industry friendly leadership at the helm of Ministry of Defence, relentlessly promoting Indigenisation of the Defence Sector by embracing the Government's agship initiative 'Make in India', Defence & Aerospace sector is poised to become a major contributor to GDP growth over coming years. Our Armed Forces, and the Indian Army in particular have been very proactive over past few years in reaching out to industry to absorb upcoming technologies and indigenous solutions for their day-to-day operations. The much-needed dissemination of critical requirements of Indian Army has been expedited through the constitution of Army Design Bureau (ADB). FICCI provided able support to this endeavour by associating with ADB to bring together Army - Industry - Academia in a strong partnership culminating in issuing "Compendium of Problems" by the Army HQ. In the last one and a half year the Army - Industry - Academia dialogue has traversed a long way across the industrial & academic clusters in India, with Army spelling its operational requirements, to next logical phase of the industry and academia offering home grown solutions to the problems.

  • President's Report 2017
    ANNUAL REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL : 2017 1. Gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the second meeting of the present Council. The USI is a unique, autonomous Institution with unequalled expertise in the field of National Security and matters pertaining to the Defence Services. It has built an outstanding reputation over the last 147 years. It is my privilege to present the report of the Institution for the year 2017. A copy of the report has been placed on the table and will be included in the minutes of the meeting. MEMBERSHIP 2. The Institution began with a membership of 215 members and was 3500 when it moved to its present premises in 1996. Today we have 14,321 Members. It is heartening to report that during the current year 137 new Life Members, 43 Associate Members, 107 Ordinary Members and 1217 Course Members were enrolled. This continuous growth exemplifies the support and trust the Institution enjoys. FINANCES 3. The Institution does not get any grant / aid from the Ministry of Defence or the Services. It continues to carry out all its activities from the resources generated within. Since the USI Centres {Center for Strategic Studies and Simulation (CS3) and Center for Armed Forces Historical Research (CAFHR)} are not able to meet their annual expenditure, they are allocated resources from the Corpus Fund. Further, our building and equipment being more than two decades old, now require greater allocation of funds for their renovation and upkeep. 4. The Audit Report and Balance Sheet for 2016-17, Revised Estimates for 2017-18 and Budget Estimates for 2018-19 are already with you.

  • Making of a Soldier “IF DEATH STRIKE BEFORE I PROVE MY BLOOD, I SWEAR I ‘LL KILL DEATH” - CAPT MANOJ KUMAR PANDEY
    No. 02/2018BAATCHEETwww.indianarmy.gov.in | February 2018 MAKING OF A SOLDIER “IF DEATH STRIKE BEFORE I PROVE MY BLOOD, I SWEAR I ‘LL KILL DEATH” - CAPT MANOJ KUMAR PANDEY INDIAN ARMY IS GUIDED BY THOUGHTS OF INDIAN PEOPLE AND IDEAS OF EXCELLENCE War memorial (A series covering War Memorials across the country to remember our soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the line of duty) TANOT WAR MEMORIAL The history of Tanot War Memorial is associated with two major wars fought between India and Pakistan in the years 1965 and 1971. A Victory Stupa stands tall in the temple premises bearing testimony to the success and valour of Indian Army in both the wars. It serves as a mark of remembrance for the glorious sacrifices made by our soldiers in line of duty. It salutes the brave hearts who feared nothing and laid down their lives while defending their motherland. SADHEWALA WAR MEMORIAL The heroic saga of the ‘Battle of Laungewala’ remains incomplete without the mention of the action at Sadhewala, a small hamlet in the midst of the Thar Desert. In memory of those who laid down their life for their motherland, this memorial was constructed by 3 GRENADIERS during their tenure in Jaipur . 2 | February 2018 In this Issue……. FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Every citizen plays his role as per his ability but the role, which a soldier plays while safeguarding the frontiers of the motherland, is most important and unique. A soldier lives for the nation and dies for her dignity. Hence the training of a soldier is a bedrock of Indian Army.
