In this episode of "The Syllabus of Life", we have Lt. General Satish Dua in conversation with Ex IRS Ravi Kapoor.

Lt. General Satish Dua (Retd.) is one of India's most decorated military commanders - former Corps Commander of the Kashmir Valley, architect of the historic Uri Surgical Strike, former Chief of Integrated Defence Staff, and author of three acclaimed books including India's Brave Heart, Bravest of the Brave, and General's Reminiscences: A Life Under Fire in Kashmir.

In this episode, Lt. General Satish Dua and Ex IRS Ravi Kapoor discuss:
→ Why has war gone mainstream — and why does it now affect a chai vendor in Delhi?
→ How did India intercept almost every Pakistani missile and drone in Operation Sindoor?
→ Can China do to India what the US did to Iran — a full decapitation strike?
→ What is asymmetric warfare and are we truly prepared for it on both sides?
→ How does a Surgical Strike actually get planned — and what happens in that decision room?
→ Why did Pakistan NOT play the nuclear card this time — and will it ever dare?
→ Is Pakistan a real mediator or just a convenient conduit between Iran and the US?
→ Where will India stand in the New World Order that is now being reset?
→ What is Ikhwan — the surrendered terrorist experiment that turned militants into soldiers?
→ What was the world's highest military attack — at 21,153 feet on the Siachen Glacier?
→ What is the thinnest line between bravery and foolhardiness in combat?
→ What is the one achievement a four-star General is most proud of — and it has nothing to do with war?
