Lt-Gen Kanwal Jeet Singh Dhillon, Chinar Corps commander, handed over charge of the strategic Kashmir-based 15 Corps to Lt-Gen BS Raju on Saturday.

During his tenure, which lasted for more than a year, Lt-General Dhillon witnessed a large number of landmark events such as abrogation of Article 370 and the Pulwama IED blast.

Lt-General Dhillon, who has vast professional experience in counter-terrorist operations, can be credited for conceptualising, initiating and re-establishing the much-needed Army-civil synergy with renewed vigor and pragmatism, an Army statement said.
