New Delhi – In a serious message to the nation, Indian Army Deputy Chief Lt. General Rahul R. Singh has warned that India is now dealing with three adversaries on a single front — China, Pakistan, and non-state terrorist groups. Speaking during Operation Sindoor, he also flagged the increasing involvement of Turkey, calling it a new geopolitical player supporting anti-India narratives
Lt. Gen. Singh explained that Pakistan is not acting alone, and is receiving intelligence, surveillance tools, and drone technology from China. This coordination, he said, is making India’s security environment more complex than ever before.
> “Pakistan is clearly getting tactical support from China. Their collaboration is visible on ground, in air surveillance, and even in cyber warfare,” he stated.
What raised further concerns was his mention of Turkey, which he said is playing a subtle but strategic role by backing propaganda networks and ideological groups that fuel unrest in India — especially in Kashmir and other sensitive regions.
> “Turkey’s indirect involvement through funding and support to radical platforms must not be ignored,” he added.
The Deputy Chief emphasized that the Indian Army is fully prepared to face this “hybrid warfare”, which combines military, digital, and ideological threats. He confirmed that India has increased border surveillance, drone countermeasures, and cyber defense systems.
With two nuclear-armed nations coordinating and external players like Turkey entering the picture, the Indian Army’s leadership has called for urgent modernization and public awareness.
