  • 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

    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.

    @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.

    Dharpok lootera Khangress watched China make rapid strides on their side near the border but did nothing. Thanks to Modi Govt things are different. Appeasement of Muslims by Khangress has made India weak,, unreliable and vulnerable. Khangress should move to PoK and RAGA should be made PM of PoK. For India's progress keep Khangress away from India.

    There is a seniority among the services, and it was deliberately changed in the Indian services, compared to the practices of the British services.
    For the UK, the senior service is the Navy, and there is no doubt about that.
    For India, the Indian Navy started from the Royal Indian Navy, and that itself was quite behind the British Indian Army, counting only from 1858. The Indian Army - the British Indian Army - with its commander-in-chief, one of whom actually was a factor in destroying one of the most powerful viceroys, when the two of them clashed - was the senior service, followed by the Indian Navy; the Indian Air Force, being the most recent, is the juniormost service (as it is in the UK).
    That apart, the seniority from their batch numbers in the NDA counts, when all three are of the same rank, and if not, the rank counts.
