Losses are not important, but outcomes are, says CDS in Pune
The New Indian Express
|June 04, 2025
CHIEF of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan on Tuesday asserted that "losses are not important, but outcomes are", days after admitting that India lost a few fighter jets during Operation Sindoor.
"Professional military forces are not affected by setbacks and losses," he said while speaking at a special lecture on 'Future Wars and Warfare' organised by Savitribai Phule University in Pune.
"When I was asked about losses on our side... I said these are not important. The results are important. It would not be very correct to talk about losses. Suppose you go to a cricket match, and you win, by any means, then there's no question about how many wickets, balls, players," he said.
