As part of enhanced security preparations in the run-up to Republic Day 2026 and in furtherance of Military–Civil Fusion, a Counter-Drone Capsule was conducted at Tinsukia. The capsule focused on strengthening joint preparation and coordinated planning against emerging drone-based threats.
The training was conducted by the Red Shield Gunners under the aegis of Spear Corps, with active participation from personnel of Assam Police, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL).
The capsule aimed at enhancing awareness, response mechanisms and coordination among participating agencies to address the evolving challenges posed by the misuse of drones. Practical demonstrations and structured interactions formed part of the training, enabling participants to develop a common understanding of procedures and response protocols.
The exercise significantly enhanced operational readiness and inter-agency coordination, contributing to strengthened collective security preparedness through a whole-of-nation approach. Such joint efforts underscore the importance of synergy between military and civil stakeholders in ensuring robust security arrangements during major national events.
