Lt Gen Navin Sachdeva Assumes Role as Chief of Staff, Central Command of Indian Army

Lt Gen Navin Sachdeva has officially taken over as the Chief of Staff of the Indian Army’s Central Command on April 10, 2025, following the completion of his tenure as the General-Officer-Commanding (GOC) of the Nagrota-based White Knight Corps, also known as 16 Corps.

The announcement was made by Surya Command, which expressed confidence in benefiting from the General’s vast experience in both operational and administrative domains.

Lt Gen Sachdeva assumed command of the White Knight Corps in January 2024, a prestigious formation with a rich history in Jammu and Kashmir, before transitioning to his new role at Central Command.

Headquartered in Lucknow, Central Command oversees military operations across eight states and manages the central sector of India’s western border with Pakistan, playing a pivotal role in strategic planning and humanitarian missions, such as flood relief operations in the region.

The General’s appointment comes at a time when Central Command continues to be instrumental in both defence and disaster response, as seen in past initiatives like Operation Surya Hope during the 2013 Uttarakhand floods. Lt Gen Sachdeva’s leadership is expected to further strengthen the command’s operational readiness and administrative efficiency, drawing on his extensive military expertise.

The Indian Army and associated defence bodies extended their greetings to the General, expressing optimism for his tenure in this critical role.
