A sweeping restructuring of the armed forces will see the elimination of senior military roles, including those of generals and admirals, as part of a major reform initiative led by the defence secretary. The changes aim to reshape the command structure and operational efficiency within the defence establishment, marking one of the most significant overhauls in recent years. Officials suggest the move could streamline decision-making and reduce bureaucratic layers, though concerns remain over potential disruptions to leadership continuity. The defence secretary has framed the overhaul as necessary to modernize the military for evolving global security challenges.
