A scenario planning exercise was held on Wednesday in Guwahati under 101 Area and HQ Eastern Command, the Indian Army's largest command covering Northeast India, focusing on understanding mutual strengths and optimizing resource between the Army and Northeast Frontier Railway.

According to a statement released by the Public Relations Officer (PRO) Defence, the primary goal was to align working mechanisms to ensure rapid, coordinated responses during any national crisis.

"The session brainstormed diverse contingencies to bolster operational preparedness across the sensitive Eastern sector. Significant emphasis was placed on developing dual-use infrastructure, a strategic move designed to enhance logistics while ensuring substantial expenditure savings for the government," the release said.
