Additionally, the app simplifies previously complex administrative tasks, allowing veterans to effortlessly apply for identity cards and various grants via the Assam Rifles Ex-Servicemen Association (ARESA).

The app also introduces an interactive segment that encourages veterans to maintain connections with one another and with the organization itself. This feature is particularly crucial for nurturing a sense of community, ensuring that retired personnel remain informed and engaged with ongoing developments within the Assam Rifles.

In his remarks, Lt Gen Vikas Lakhera noted that the launch of the ‘Sampark Setu’ app marks a pivotal moment in Assam Rifles’ ongoing initiatives to honor and aid its veterans. He highlighted that this technological advancement reflects a broader movement towards incorporating digital tools in veteran welfare programs, potentially serving as a model for other organizations within the armed forces.

Through the confluence of digital innovation and a deep-rooted commitment to tradition, the Assam Rifles seeks to guarantee that its veterans are not only commemorated for their service but also well-supported in their transition to civilian life. This initiative represents a forward-thinking approach to addressing the needs of veterans, providing them with the resources and connectivity they require as they adapt to life after military service

Finally to conclude we can only say: “There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.” For tomorrow this is our backdrop to the story: Mountaintops inspire leaders, but valleys mature them.” By the way, General Lakhera knows the same! So see you till we meet again as tomorrow is going to approach in next 24 hours as we would start yet again!
