India-Oman bilateral security ties have continued to develop since the beginning of India-Oman Joint Military Cooperation meetings in 2006.

Exercise Al Nagah III follows the first two joint exercises that were held in Oman in January 2015 and India in March 2017 respectively. Similar exercises are also in vogue between the navies and air forces of both the nations thus underscoring the growing bilateral military and strategic partnership between the two important nations of Indian Ocean Region (IOR).

The Indian Army contingent is going to be represented by four Officers, nine Junior Commissioned Officers and 47 other ranks of 10th Battalion of the Garhwal Rifles.
Similar strength is also to be fielded by Jabel Regiment of Royal Army of Oman (RAO).

Observer delegation comprising senior officers of both the armies will witness the validation exercise to be held on March 25. The exercise will go a long way in enchaining understanding of capabilities and strengthening camaraderie between both the Armies.
