Amidst the growing tension between India and Pakistan, the Defense Ministry has taken a big decision. The ministry has issued a notification to assist the regular army. According to this notification, now the regular army can call the Territorial Army for its assistance. In such a situation, a question arises in the minds of cricket fans whether if there is a war, MS Dhoni, who is the Lieutenant Colonel of the Territorial Army, will also go to war.
As soon as the notification of the Defense Ministry is issued, now the Army Chief will have the authority to involve the Territorial Army in military action for help as per his discretion. At the same time, former captain of the Indian team MS Dhoni is an honorary Lieutenant Colonel in the Territorial Army. That means now if the matter against Pakistan moves forward, then MS Dhoni will also have to be ready.
What is Territorial ArmyThe Territorial Army is a reserve military force. It does not directly take the front, but when the time of war comes, it is also deployed in the field. The Territorial Army provides various types of services to the army. If needed, this army also has to provide units to the regular army.
Let us tell you that the Territorial Army is also trained by the Army so that it can be useful at the right time. In times of crisis, this army's job is to provide internal security. The Territorial Army is a voluntary organization. Dhoni is a Lieutenant Colonel in this Territorial Army and he has undergone Army training.
MS Dhoni is freeMS Dhoni has now retired from international cricket. However, till a few days ago he was playing for his team in the IPL, but now the IPL has also been suspended amid tension. In such a situation, all the players are slowly returning to their homes. In such a situation, Dhoni is free and he can serve in the army.
