The Indian Armed Forces are reorganizing into integrated theatre commands to enhance operational efficiency by unifying the Army, Navy, and Air Force under centralized commands. This initiative, inspired by models from the U.S. and China, began in earnest in 2019 with the establishment of the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) and the Department of Military Affairs (DMA). Proposed commands include the Western Theatre Command in Jaipur, Northern Theatre Command in Lucknow, and Maritime Theatre Command in Coimbatore. This restructuring aims to streamline military operations, optimize resource allocation, and improve strategic coordination, but it still requires final government approval.
