Urging the commanders to continue their efforts in ensuring a safe operational flying environment, he stressed on the need to augment the combat capability of the IAF through innovation, self-reliance and indigenisation, the statement issued on Friday said.
Bhadauria emphasised the need for critical analysis to enhance operational preparedness, focus on maintenance practices, robust physical and cyber security, it said.
He appreciated the role of the Central Air Command in the recent flood relief efforts and aid to civil administration.
Last month, Madhya Pradesh’s Gwalior-Chambal region and last week, Jamnagar, Rajkot and Junagadh districts of Gujarat were hit by floods after heavy rainfall, and the IAF had assisted the civil administration in rescuing people and providing relief material to the affected.
