Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi (PVSM, AVSM, ADC) will deliver a speech on the "Role and Contribution of Indian Army in Development of India" at the General BC Joshi Memorial speech on November 27.
The event will begin at 5 p.m. in the Department of Defence and Strategic Sciences, Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) in Pune.
The SPPU and Southern Command Headquarters launched the General BC Joshi Memorial Lecture Series in 1995 to honour General BC Joshi, who died in 1994.
This lecture series honours General Joshi's legacy, which includes his dedication to national integration, Indian cultural values, environmental care, and strategic security. Renowned leaders, such as Admiral Karambir Singh, General Bipin Rawat, and General KV Krishna Rao, have already spoken in this distinguished series.
According to Prof. Parag Kalkar, SPPU Pro-Vice-Chancellor, the series honours General Joshi's contributions to national security thinking and strategic development.
Prof. Suresh Gosavi, SPPU's vice-chancellor, and Prof. Parag Kalkar will be the guests of honour at this year's lecture, which Dr Vijay Khare, Head of the Department of Defence and Strategic Sciences, will chair. The talk will likely attract those interested in national security, defence, and development.
