He was addressing army personnel at the over two hundred years old Mhow cantonment in the Indore district of Madhya Pradesh.

"Taking the security scenario into account, Bharat is not a very lucky country because our northern border and western border continuously face challenges," said Singh, who is on a two-day tour of the state.
