  • Kibithu military garrison, a key military station guarding the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Anjaw district of Arunachal Pradesh has been named after India’s first Chief of Defence Staff Gen Bipin Rawat.
  • Gen Bipin Rawat was killed in a chopper crash near Coonoor in Tamil Nadu in December last year along with his wife and 12 other Army and IAF personnel.
  • The reason for choosing this military base for the renaming is clear as Gen Rawat had made a significant contribution to strengthening the security structure of the remote Kibithu area when he commanded his Battalion 5/11 Gorkha Rifles as a Colonel from 1999-2000.
  • Along with the renaming of the military camp, the 22km Kibithu-Wallong Road, was also renamed General Bipin Rawat Road.
  • Kibithu, a small hamlet in the eastern most part of India, is a strategically located military camp guarding the LAC.
