Indian Army Trishakti Corps Adopts Army Martial Arts Routine (AMAR) Training at High Altitudes exceeding 14000 ft.

Trishakti Corps has commenced intensive AMAR (Army Martial Arts Routine ) training at altitudes exceeding 14,000 ft, significantly enhancing close-combat readiness in some of the most demanding operational zones along the Northern Borders. Conducted amid sub-zero temperatures, rarefied air, and rugged terrain, this training prepares soldiers to respond effectively even when conventional weapons are not immediately available. AMAR is a modern combat system that blends traditional Indian martial arts with globally proven close-combat techniques. The regimen covers bare hand engagements, weapon-based combat, stress response control, and comprehensive physical mental conditioning all critical for high-altitude operations. A young officer participating in the training shared his experience: “At 14,000 ft, the mountains challenge your stamina, focus, and resolve. AMAR helps us stay calm under pressure and gives us the confidence that even without a weapon in hand, we are fully prepared for any close quarter threat.” The training enhances reflexes, balance, stamina, situational awareness, and controlled aggression essential attributes for success in close-quarters battle in mountainous terrain. In simple words, AMAR ensures every soldier of the Indian Army becomes a weapon – ready to fight and win, anytime, anywhere.
