IAF is ready for any challenge, says Arup Raha

The situation is "live" in the wake of the surgical strikes on terror launch pads across the LoC and the armed forces are ready to deal with any challenge, IAF Chief Marshal Arup Raha said. Describing the Rafale fighter jets as "exceptional", Raha said the force would like to have more of the aircraft and insisted that the recently signed contract for 36 fighters was better than other such deals.
