Fri Apr 15, 2011

Deputy Commander of the Islamic Revolution's Guards Corps says structural reforms within the IRGC have resulted in “a unified commanding system.”

Brigadier General Hossein Salami said the reforms have led to unity among different sections of the IRGC each of which have their own structure, IRNA reported.

“The structural reforms will increase cooperation among different units of IRGC and prepare a strategy and a plan for coordination among different IRGC units,” he added.

Brigadier General Salami said that the IRGC intends to increase its efficiency through “precise planning” and “the use of software applications.”

Last week, Commander of the Iranian Army's Ground Forces Brigadier-General Ahmad-Reza Pourdastan said a major part of the structural reforms will be completed by the end of the current Iranian calendar year (2011-2012).

Earlier in March, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei approved reforms in the structure, composition and organization of the Ground Forces, he said.

Last August, the commander-in-chief of the Iranian armed forces approved making the implementation of the plan to restructure the Ground Forces a mission for the army, Pourdastan said.
