Military conference postponed due to Operation Sindoor

India Jun 16, 2025

India's top military conference, the Combined Commanders Conference (CCC), was set for late May or early June in Kolkata but has now been postponed to August-September after Operation Sindoor. The new date depends on upcoming security checks, and with the Prime Minister expected to attend, it's clearly a major event.

What will commanders discuss this time?

This time, commanders will dig into lessons from Operation Sindoor and talk about bringing new tech into military strategy. They'll also review the Agnipath recruitment scheme and check up on security along India's key borders. The last CCC in 2023 covered topics like social media's impact on defense and ways to boost defense exports.
