Indian Army Implements Common Uniform for Brigadier and above Ranks
The Indian Army put in force a common uniform for the rank of Brigadier and above like Major General, Lieutenant-General and General, irrespective of an officer's parent cadre and appointment. The step has been implemented to maintain uniformity all across the Indian Army. There will be no change in the uniform worn by Colonels and officers below that rank.
The decision was taken after a discussion with all stakeholders during the Army Commanders Conference.
