General Dhiraj Seth, Chief of the Army Staff (COAS), proceeded on an official visit to the Czech Republic from November 16 to 19 with visit aims to strengthen bilateral defence cooperation, enhance military-to-military engagement and explore opportunities for collaboration in defence technology and industry.

During the visit, the COAS will hold discussions with senior military leaders of the Czech Armed Forces, including Lieutenant General Petr Čepelka, First Deputy Chief of the General Staff and the Deputy Chief of Defence at General Staff Headquarters (GSHQ) in Prague.
