Operation Akhand Prahar was carried out in Jaisalmer as part of Exercise Trishul, demonstrating India’s ability to coordinate across multiple domains of warfare. The exercise involved close synchronisation between the Indian Army and the Indian Air Force, highlighting improved joint operational readiness. It also validated the capabilities of the newly established RUDRA Brigade, an integrated formation combining infantry, armoured units, mechanised forces, and air defence assets. Advanced technologies such as drones, counter-drone systems, and indigenous equipment further strengthened the exercise’s objective of showcasing next-generation combat preparedness and modernised battlefield effectiveness.
