Notes: The 14th edition of Exercise Maitree is a joint military drill between India and Thailand. It will be held in Umroi, Meghalaya, from September 1 to 14, 2025. The exercise focuses on sharing best practices in tactics, techniques, and procedures. It will strengthen operational capabilities for joint company-level counter-terrorism operations in semi-urban terrain. This edition is significant as the exercise is returning to India after five years. The last edition was held in Tak Province, Thailand, with 76 soldiers each from India’s Ladakh Scouts and Thailand’s 1st Battalion of the 14th Infantry Regiment.
