Explanation

The Counterinsurgency and Jungle Warfare School (CIJWS) is a premier training institution of the Indian Army located in Vairengte, Mizoram [t1][t2]. Established in 1967, it was initially situated at Jowai in Meghalaya before being relocated to its current site in Vairengte on May 1, 1970 [t2][t7]. The school is recognized as a 'Centre of Excellence' for unconventional warfare, specializing in guerrilla tactics, counter-terrorist operations, and survival in dense tropical terrains [t2][t7]. Its location in the Lushai Hills was strategically chosen due to the region's history of insurgency and its challenging environmental conditions, which provide an ideal setting for realistic combat training [t2]. CIJWS trains not only Indian Army and paramilitary personnel but also international contingents, earning a global reputation as a leading facility for jungle warfare [t2][t10].
