Jaipur: On a visit to the South Western
Command here, army chief General V K Singh Saturday reviewed the operational preparedness and interacted with the officers.

Singh arrived here yesterday with his wife Bharti on a two-day visit.
The army chief interacted with officers of the Jaipur
Military Station and emphasised the importance of remaining
focused on the job at hand while preparing for all
contingencies.

Bharti interacted with the families in the military
stations during the visit.

The army chief and his wife later returned to the
capital. Singh will leave for an official tour of Britain from
February 13 to 17.
Gen Singh yesterday lost his legal battle on the age row
in the Supreme Court which said the government decision on his
date of birth will apply for his service matters, forcing him
to withdraw his petition.

The court refused to interfere with May 10, 1950 as his date of birth maintained in the service record by which he
will have to retire on May 31 this year.
