There is a bit confusion about the name of vice chief of defence staff. Whether it is c Hari kumar(air marshal) or Hari kumar (vice admiral) Mahusha ( talk) 12:56, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
But it was given vice admiral r Hari kumar Mahusha ( talk) 13:59, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

"Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS) is a professional head of the Indian Armed Forces and the senior-most uniformed adviser to the Indian government, supported by the tri-service chief of the Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air Force,
with the first CDS being General Bipin Rawat."
Are there any other suitable photographs of the CDS which could be used in the infobox? (This image is used in the main article too so maybe something else could be put here?)

What is the source for the designation with the definite article? All the official sources on gov.in sites seem to suggest it should be Chief of Defence Staff without a "the". Shyamal ( talk) 10:37, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Yes, we should change the title. Info12d ( talk) 11:49, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
Which sets the norm and uniformity of the titles used in these related articles.
While at the other hand, there is only one article carrying the name of "Chief of Defence Staff"; Chief of Defence Staff (India). — Hemant Dabral Talk 12:13, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

In this element of the introduction:
While being "first among equals" among the service chiefs, the CDS is a single-point military advisor to the defence minister.[5].The CDS is assisted by a deputy, the Vice Chief of the Defence Staff.
There's an extra full stop after the [5]. Please remove it. 122.150.71.249 ( talk) 19:08, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
In the intro, CDS is described as "the highest-ranking uniformed officer on active duty". The table now notes that the current "Appointee retired from a 3-star rank". Had he retired and was recalled to become CDS? Otherwise, this seems contradictory. — C.Fred ( talk) 12:56, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
