The Service Headquarters are an integral part of the policy and decision making process of the Ministry of Defence.
Creation of post of Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) was recommended by Group of Ministers in 2001. A decision in this regard was to be taken after consultation with political parties. The consultation process however could not be completed because all political parties have not yet responded. Subsequently, Naresh Chandra Task Force (NCTF) on National Security had recommended creation of the post of Permanent Chairman Chief of Staff Committee in 2012. Both the proposals are under consideration of the Government.
This information was given by Minister of State for Defence Rao Inderjit Singh in a written reply to Shri AU Singh Deo in Rajya Sabha today.
