India, UK Hold Talks on Cyber Security and Defence Cooperation

India and the United Kingdom have taken a major step toward strengthening defence ties as Chief of Defence Staff Anil Chauhan began a three-day official visit to London, the first such visit by an Indian CDS to Britain.

The visit marks the fifth high-level military engagement between the two nations this year, reflecting growing strategic convergence.

During talks, both sides discussed expanding cooperation in cyber security, intelligence sharing, defence industrial collaboration, and joint military exercises. The discussions are aimed at enhancing global security, stability, and resilience.

The visit follows a series of recent engagements, including talks held last month in New Delhi between senior military leaders from both countries focused on improving interoperability and operational cooperation.

Officials said the visit underlines a shared commitment by India and the UK to build a future-ready defence partnership in an evolving global security environment.
