New Delhi: Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi has said that future challenges are coming so fast that by the time you prepare for the current one, the next challenge comes at you adding that even US President Donald Trump doesn’t know what he’ll do tomorrow.
Addressing students at TRS College in Madhya Pradesh’s Rewa, Army Chief Upendra Dwivedi said that the challenges are such that one has to remain prepared across all fronts from space to cyber, to land, air, and sea.

How Will Future Challenges Be? Army Chief Upendra Dwivedi Explains
Giving food for thought to the students at Rewa’s TRS College, Army Chief Upendra Dwivedi talked about future challenges, saying they are coming fast and that we are completely clueless about what the future holds.

“Future challenges are coming. They’re instability, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity… You and I are completely clueless about what the future holds,” the Army Chief said.

Taking a reference to the US President, he said, “What is Trump doing today? I think even Trump doesn’t know what he is going to do tomorrow. Challenges are coming so quickly that by the time you try to grasp an old challenge, a new one emerges—and the same security challenges our military faces.”
“Whether it’s on the border, terrorism, natural disasters, or cyber warfare. The new things that have started: space warfare, satellites, chemical, biological, radiological, and information warfare. The way rumours are spread. As you heard in Operation Sindoor — Karachi has been attacked. So much such news came, which seemed like news to us too. Where did it come from, who did it?… In the scope of all these challenges, you have to work on land, sky, water—all three,” said the Army Chief.

How the Army Chief Addressed Gen Z

Mentioning that it is fashionable these days to talk about Gen Z, Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi said, “Generation Z is here, and it’s fashionable these days to talk about Gen Z, because they are spread everywhere. The biggest thing is that India’s Generation Z population is the largest in the world and even the Indian Army is left behind.”
“Because we are the second largest, only Generation Z comes first… It means that this Generation Z is digitally fluent. Meaning, they are digitally comfortable. They are technologically advanced and socially aware. Social awareness, digitally fluent, and most importantly, they are globally connected: the whole world’s latest developments. If you have so much power, if you just get discipline and guidance, then who knows how many generations, how many ages will India advance in a second. In the future, it will be Generation Z that will fuel India and take it forward. Therefore, it was crucial for me to be here…,” COAS said.
