  • Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria (Retd.) is the former Chief of Air Staff and is a decorated officer with a career spanning over four decades. He also served as Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief (AOC) at Southern Air Command. He is the man who spearheaded the Rafale negotiations during his tenure as vice chief of the Air Staff. In his four-decade career, Bhadauria has the distinction of logging more than 4,250 flight hours across 26 different types of fighter jets and transport aircraft. In this edition of the ANI Podcast with Smita Prakash, he shares insights on India's Balakot strike against Pakistan following the Pulwama attack. He applauds the political will that led to action against terrorists. He talks about the importance of the Rafale's induction into the Indian Air Force and terms it a game-changer for the air arm of the Indian Armed Forces and also talks about expediting indigenous aircraft production. Bhadauria also shares details on the escalation in the Indo-China border post Galwan clash and how the Indian Air Force's deployment acted as a deterrent to China's intentions.

    Right from the time George Fernandez was Defence Minister in Vajpayee’s govt, he always said China was the threat to India than Pakistan etc. We must prepare to face them. But UPA ignored the defence purchases

      Not ignored - they are the threat to bharat

      UPA was bribed by China. Please remember Italian bar dancer and her comedian son still do not talk what they signed in China. But sad truth is they are still in politics instead of in the jail

    Dear ANI Team, I'm a big fan of your podcast and interviewing skills but I think in this episode you were together (both Smitha and the other gentleman) and as a result were cutting into the conversations more often than not. I guess you need to control your excitement sometimes to let the speaker be more expressive.

  • @anandmanvi1532

    @smitha Prakash: @7:30 Ajit asked the chief to be specific on questions about troop deployment and machines after galwan . This should be avoided as this leads to national security leaks. Our neighbours countries shouldn't know all these

    India is doing good in air
    Power but it’s
    Not enough and a lot needs to be done in terms
    If the number of
    Aircraft’s.
    1. Indigenously built technically advanced air power needs to be
    Focussed and we need some
    World Class outcomes in the next 3-5 years.
    It has been long overlooked after independence.
    2. Infrastructure development is
    Now Happening well and needs to be taken to the next
    Level.

    Please invite Dr Niraj Rai and Sanjeev sanyal both together and discuss the history of indian civilization.Niraj Rai being Archeo genesist is best suited to unearth history through archeology and genetics and Sanjeev sanyal 's book Land of the seven rivers based on history of indian civilization is more appropriate book on history of indian civilization rather than Marxist historians written history school books.

    We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful person as Air Chief Marshal of Indian Airforce.During his tenure modernization of Armed Forces in full swing. CDS Gen.Vipin Rawat supported in getting several things for Airforce. Under the dynamic leadership of Prime minister Narendra Modi he was well protected during Rafael deal from our short sighted political parties.

  • @kshitijsingh5216
    @kshitijsingh5216 Před 7 měsíci +3

    He should be next CDS..Considering that he's from IAF, has served on inter govt negotiations team on Rafael project and is currently working on Defence Industrial Corridor, he would bring in great experience. Govt should reward him with post of CDS for saving $1B.
