Gen Chauhan wraps up 'very satisfying' tenure as CDS; Lt Gen Subramani to take charge Sunday

New Delhi, May 30: Outgoing Chief of Defence Staff Gen Anil Chauhan on Saturday described his tenure as very satisfying as he wrapped up a three-year-and-eight-month stint at the top military post, during which he focused on bringing synergy among the three services. Lt Gen NS Raja Subramani (retd) will take charge as India's next Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) on Sunday. I had a very satisfying and excellent tenure, the outgoing CDS told reporters after he was accorded a ceremonial tri-services guard of honour. Gen Chauhan, a former Eastern Army Commander, took charge as the country's senior-most military commander in September 2022, over nine months after the first CDS General Bipin Rawat died in a helicopter crash in Tamil Nadu. As Chief of Defence Staff, Gen Chauhan played a key role in planning and implementation of Operation Sindoor along with the three service chiefs. During his tenure, he focused on ensuring tri-services synergy to enhance India's military prowess in view of the evolving regional security scenario. The Chief of Defence Staff also initiated a number of measures towards India's plan to roll out the theaterisation model by creating integrated military commands. It's a matter of great honour for me to superannuate with a tri-services guard of honour. I thank the three services and Headquarters IDS (Integrated Defence Staff) for it. With the conclusion of the guard of honour, I bid farewell to my colleagues in uniform, comrades in arms, Gen Chauhan said. I just laid the wreath at the War Memorial for the last time in uniform, as a humble tribute to those who laid down their lives in the line of duty. After the wreath laying, I was welcomed by friends, relatives and well-wishers. This is symbolic of my transition from uniform to civilian life, he said. Gen Chauhan's tenure was to end on September 30 last year, but he was given an extension. He had retired from service in May 2021 in the rank of lieutenant general, but assumed the rank of a four-star General after taking charge as India's second Chief of Defence Staff. Gen Chauhan was the Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) when Indian fighter jets pounded a Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorist training camp deep inside Pakistan's Balakot in February 2019. He was known to have provided key inputs for the operation. Born on May 18, 1961, Gen Chauhan was commissioned into the 11 Gorkha Rifles of the Indian Army in 1981. In his distinguished career, Gen Chauhan held several command, staff and instrumental appointments and had extensive experience in counter-insurgency operations in Jammu and Kashmir and Northeast India. The officer is an alumnus of the National Defence Academy, Khadakwasla, and the Indian Military Academy, Dehradun. In the rank of Maj General, the officer had commanded an Infantry Division in the critical Baramulla sector in the Northern Command. Later, he commanded a corps in the Northeast and subsequently went on to become the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Eastern Command. Gen Chauhan was awarded with the Param Vishisht Seva Medal, Uttam Yudh Seva Medal, Ati Vishisht Seva Medal, Sena Medal and Vishisht Seva Medal for his exemplary services to the Indian Army.

New Report Warns of Immediate Climate Risks Across India's 11,000 km Coastline

Indian Coastal Region: Climate Projections 2021–2040’ report released by Azim Premji University, Bengaluru.    Santonu Goswami, Professor, School of Climate Change and Sustainability, Azim Premji University, Bengaluru   Focusing on near-term projections (2021-2040) the study provides actionable insights for policymakers and local communities, using CMIP6* model projections corrected for regional bias to improve accuracy. The report warns that the window for adaptation is rapidly narrowing as the 1.5°C warming threshold is expected to be reached across India’s administrative regions in the near future.      “Climate change is not some distant future challenge—it is the reality of today. 2040 is just 14 years away,” said Anurag Behar, CEO, Azim Premji Foundation . “This dataset brings to life the impacts of climate change with much greater immediacy, highlighting how we must restructure our infrastructure and governance to ensure we collectively address this crisis.”   The report traces how specific changes—from rising wet-bulb temperatures in Kerala to intensifying monsoons in Maharashtra—are already rendering traditional knowledge systems, like the Nakaih wind calendar, unreliable. It aims to provide the foundational data necessary for local authorities to build district-level resilience.   “The data in this report is a mirror that reflects a reality we can no longer afford to ignore. For decades, we treated climate change as a global abstraction — a problem of polar ice caps and distant centuries. But our findings show that for the Indian coastline, the crisis is hyper-local and immediate. Whether it is the heat stress in Ernakulam or the rising salinity in the Sundarbans, our vulnerability is visible in all aspects of our daily lives. We have a short window of time to move from reactive mitigation to proactive adaptation — we need to craft a future that acknowledges the ecological challenges faced by our nation,” said Harini Nagendra, Director, School of Climate Change and Sustainability, Azim Premji University.   Maharashtra and Gujarat’s coastal regions are entering a period of significant environmental transition, with Suburban Mumbai projected to see summer maximum temperatures rise by 1.3°C, highlighting the growing need for heat-resilient urban planning. This warming is accompanied by a marked intensification of seasonal rainfall; Suburban Mumbai is expected to face almost an additional week (+6 days) of heavy rain, while districts like Surat and Bhavnagar are preparing for Southwest monsoon surges of 23% and 24%, respectively. These shifts are already impacting local livelihoods: for instance, the Koli community in Mumbai reports business losses when unpredictable rain spells disrupt the traditional drying of prawns. By focusing on the immediate 2040 window, the report provides the granular data necessary for the West Coast to safeguard its infrastructure and unique coastal heritage. Key Findings Rising Temperatures: India’s average temperatures are projected to increase by 1.5°C, with approximately 40 coastal districts likely to see summer temperatures rise by over 1°C. Dangerous "Wet-Bulb" Heat: Coastal Kerala and Tamil Nadu will experience high summer wet-bulb temperatures, nearing the 31°C- levels considered dangerous for humans. Ernakulam Heat Spike: Ernakulam is projected to record the highest increase in maximum summer temperatures projected at +1.3°C among all coastal districts. Intensified West Coast Monsoons: Coastal Maharashtra and Gujarat will receive significantly higher rainfall with suburban Mumbai likely to experience nearly an additional week of heavy rain. Surat’s Monsoon Surge: Surat is projected to see a substantial 23% increase in Southwest Monsoon compared to historical levels. Sea-Level Rise and Erosion: Under moderate emission scenarios (SSP2-4.5)**, global sea levels are projected to rise by 15 cm by 2050, accelerating coastal erosion and creating "ghost villages" in regions like Ganjam, Odisha. Cyclone Risk: Rapid acceleration in sea surface temperatures (0.27°C per decade) is increasing the likelihood of intense tropical cyclones. Impact on Traditional Livelihoods: In Goa, unseasonal rains are destroying entire salt harvests within hours, while warming seas are pushing fish further offshore, leading to "empty nets" for small-scale fishermen. Health and Salinity: In the Sundarbans, rising salinity from frequent embankment breaches is linked to increased skin diseases and menstrual health challenges among women.   About Azim Premji University Azim Premji University, Bengaluru, was established under the Azim Premji University Act 2010 of the Government of Karnataka. Azim Premji University, Bhopal, was established under the provisions of Madhya Pradesh Niji Vishwa Vidyalaya (Sthapana Avam Sanchalan) Dwitiya Sanshodhan Adhiniyam, 2022. Azim Premji University in Ranchi is being established under the Azim Premji University Act, 2022, enacted by the Government of Jharkhand.   Azim Premji Foundation, the sponsoring body, set up all three Universities as fully philanthropic entities, with a clear social purpose of contributing to the realisation of a just, equitable, humane, and sustainable society.   Note to Editors: *CMIP6 (Climate Modeling) CMIP6 is the latest global framework for climate forecasting, combining data from over 30 international laboratories to create the world’s most accurate climate simulations. It allows scientists to "zoom in" on specific districts with much higher resolutions than ever before.   ** SSP2-4.5 is the "Middle of the Road" scenario that projects climate impacts based on the world’s current trajectory. It is used here to provide a realistic baseline, showing the immediate risks India's coastline faces if global development and carbon emissions continue at their present pace without drastic changes.

IMD predicts below-normal monsoon rainfall for India in 2026

New Delhi, May 29:The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said the country is likely to receive below-normal southwest monsoon rainfall during the June-September season this year, while warning of above-normal heatwave days in several states during June. In its updated long-range forecast issued by the Ministry of Earth Sciences, the IMD said the monsoon seasonal rainfall during 2026 is likely to be around 90 per cent of the Long Period Average (LPA), with a model error margin of plus or minus 4 percent. The LPA for the monsoon season based on 1971-2020 data is 87 cm. According to the forecast, there is an 84 per cent probability of below-normal or deficient rainfall across the country during the monsoon season. The IMD said below-normal rainfall is most likely over most parts of the country, except some areas of northwest and northeast India, eastern parts of peninsular India and adjoining east-central regions, where normal to above-normal rainfall is expected. The weather agency warned that below-normal rainfall may create challenges for agriculture, drinking water supply, hydropower generation and ecosystem sustainability. It may also increase the risks of drought and heat stress in several regions. For June 2026, rainfall across the country is also expected to remain below normal at less than 92 percent of the Long Period Average. However, some parts of northwest and northeast India and several areas of south peninsular India are likely to receive normal to above-normal rainfall. The IMD further said above-normal heatwave days are expected during June over many parts of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, Bihar, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh. Isolated regions of Maharashtra, Telangana, Himachal Pradesh and Tamil Nadu are also likely to witness more heatwave days than usual. However, Rajasthan and Jharkhand are expected to see below-normal heatwave days during the month. The Ministry of Earth Sciences said above-normal maximum and minimum temperatures are likely over most parts of the country during June. The IMD noted that neutral El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) conditions over the equatorial Pacific are currently transitioning towards El Nino conditions, which are likely to develop during the southwest monsoon season. Neutral Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) conditions are expected to continue during the monsoon period. The weather office advised state governments and district administrations to take necessary preparedness measures to deal with possible heatwave conditions, including ensuring safe drinking water, operational cooling shelters and stronger health surveillance systems. The IMD also urged people to remain hydrated, avoid exposure during peak afternoon hours and take special care of vulnerable individuals, including children, elderly people and outdoor workers. The department said it will issue the forecast for July rainfall in the last week of June 2026.
