In conjunction with the joint military exercise sampriti 2019, a Command Post Exercise (CPX) and a Field Training Exercise (FTX) will train soldiers in the field. The United States Charter will be used to model a situation in which both nations cooperate in a Counter-Terrorism environment for both the CPX and the FTX programmes. A gradual curriculum is being developed, with participants first becoming acquainted with one another’s organisational structure and tactical exercises throughout the first phase of the programme. Following that, a combined tactical exercise will be undertaken, during which the combat manoeuvres of both forces will be rehearsed and perfected. In the final validation exercise, personnel from both armies will work together to perform a Counter-Terrorist Operation in a controlled and simulated setting, which will serve as the culmination of the training.
Sampriti Exercise 2020
As part of this eighth edition of the exercise, which began as a platoon-level exercise in 2009 and progressed to a company-level exercise in 2015 and beyond, the military forces of the two countries will collaborate to train, plan, and carry out a series of tactical drills for the neutralisation of likely threats that may be encountered during simulated UN peacekeeping operations, according to a statement.
A joint military training exercise Sampriti 2019, is being held in UMROI, Meghalaya, India, from 03 February to 16 February 2020 as part of the ongoing Indo-Bangladesh defence cooperation. In addition to being a key bilateral defence cooperation endeavour between India and Bangladesh, Exercise sampriti 2019 will mark the ninth iteration of this annual exercise, which will be held alternately by both nations.
Sampriti, the 18th edition of the India-Bangladesh joint military exercise, began on Sunday (March 3) with a ceremonial opening ceremony attended by dignitaries from both countries. The exercise’s goal is to increase cooperation, goodwill, and camaraderie between the armies of India and Bangladesh. An equal number of people from the Bangladeshi and Indian armies are taking part in the two-week-long exercise, which aims to improve tactical and technical abilities in counter-insurgency, counter-terrorism, and assistance to civil authorities in the event of natural disasters. A unit from Bangladesh, the 36th East Bengal Battalion, was there, while a contingent from India, the 9th Battalion, the Rajputana Rifles, was in attendance.
The exercise had the goal of enhancing military ties between the two nations by allowing the forces of the two countries to better understand each other’s tactical manoeuvres and operational tactics, which was accomplished. The exercise offered a forum for people from the two nations to exchange information on counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism operations and assist civil authorities in disaster relief efforts, particularly in forest and semi-urban environments. According to the Ministry of Defence, the sampriti 2019 series of joint exercises is a very important military and diplomatic initiative between the two countries, as well as the foundation of trust and friendship between India and Bangladesh, which has been nurtured through the sweat and toil of officers and soldiers from contingents participating in each edition of the exercise.
