The Indian Army hosted the third edition of the Chanakya Defence Dialogue (CDD) 2025 in New Delhi on 27–28 November, reinforcing India’s commitment to transforming its defence strategy in line with global trends and national security imperatives. Under the theme “Reform to Transform: Sashakt, Surakshit aur Viksit Bharat,” the Dialogue brought together military leaders, strategists, diplomats, academics, youth and private-sector experts to deliberate on India’s evolving security landscape and long-term defence transformation goals.
This year’s Dialogue stands out for unveiling a comprehensive three-phase roadmap to modernise the Indian Army by 2047 — aligning military preparedness with India’s vision of becoming a developed nation.
President Droupadi Murmu inaugurated the Dialogue, commending the Indian Army for its professionalism and stressing the need for preparedness across traditional warfare, peacekeeping, humanitarian assistance, cyber and space domains. She highlighted that in the face of rising technological disruptions and new threats, India’s forces must remain agile, adaptive and multidimensional.
