WATCH: Indian Army Chief Manoj Pande Offers Prayers At Amritsar's Golden Temple

Indian Army Chief Manoj Pande was seen at Golden Temple on Sunday as he offered prayers with other devotees.

Indian Army Chief General Manoj Pande on Sunday visited Sri Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) in Amritsar, Punjab and offered prayers along with other devotees. After offering prayers, he was seen having 'Kada Prashad'. He then joined others at the pond inside the Golden Temple premises. News agency ANI shared a visual of Indian Army Chief General Manoj Pande visiting Sri Harmandir Sahib and interacting with the devotees there. 

Recently, Army Chief General Manoj Pande was seen in Manipur when he arrived for a two-day visit to the violence-hit Northeastern state to review the situation in the wake of fresh violence. During his visit, he went to several places in Manipur, interacted with the local formation commanders and also obtained a first-hand account of the situation on the ground. The Army Chief interacted with the troops of the Indian Army and Assam Rifles there.

During the visit, he called upon Manipur Governor Anusuiya Uikey, Chief Minister N Biren Singh, and Chief Security Advisor of Manipur Kuldiep Singh to discuss and deliberate on the current situation and future trajectory, in order to restore normalcy at the earliest.

Owing to the internal security situation in Manipur, the state administration requisitioned the Indian Army and Assam Rifles on May 3, 2023.

As an immediate response, the Indian Army and Assam Rifles deployed 135 columns to diffuse the situation by carrying out active domination of sensitive and fringe areas.

Approximately 35,000 civilians were evacuated to safe zones and immediate relief and humanitarian aid were provisioned to the displaced civilians by the troops of the Indian Army and Assam Rifles.

Due to the persistent efforts of the troopers of Assam Rifles, five hardcore cadres of the Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP), People's War Group (PWG), on Saturday surrendered before the Manipur Police at Somsai in Manipur’s Ukhrul district.
