SOUTH WESTERN COMMAND

SOUTH WESTERN COMMAND

The South Western Command was formally raised on April 15, 2005 and operationalised on August 15, 2005 at ‘Gothic Lines’ at Jaipur Military Station, with the customary Raising Ceremony and hoisting of the Command Flag by the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief. The Command insignia depicts the core aspects of the essence. A silver streak, symbolising strike action, command and information warfare superimposed with a seven pointed star, heralding of the seventh Command of the Indian Army and with it, assured victory. The formation sign symbolises the synergetic employment of all arms and services across the entire spectrum of conflict in a nuclear biological and chemical backdrop; jointmanship, interdependence, interoperability and compatibility between the Services - a key battle winning factor and Proactive, integrated, synergised and information warfare centre function in combat.
