Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Wednesday indicated that the post of Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) could be a reality soon, a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi marked defence reforms as a priority and stressed that "jointness at the top" was a long-overdue need.
The post of CDS was recommended by a Group of Ministers in 2001.
Parrikar said that the Defence Ministry will submit a report on various issues that Modi had raised during the annual Combined Commanders Conference held in Kochi on Tuesday.
