Indian Defence Review Vol 28.2

It will require a strong national leadership and induction of military thinking in the foreign office. The propaganda by the pacifists and the Chinese lobby, that since we are militarily not prepared, we need to concede our territory and self-respect, is not true. Despite the temporary reprieve and face-saving provided by withdrawal from DBO by the Chinese to India in view of the visit of their Prime Minister, the incursions and land grabbing will continue.

In the long term, invite technology transfer under joint ventures in private sectors with enhanced FDI of 49 per cent to create modern defence production facilities in the country. What a surprise that I am reading this excellent article, just after writing one called Red Alert — the silent Chinese Invasion. Verma wrote this piece in , many more developments have taken place, demonstrating that the Chinese have advanced in leaps and bounds and have almost already encircled India.

I would like to submit my commentary to the IDR, if t he editors so wish. Thank you and congratulations to Mr Verma on his far sightedness. Your mullahs do not understand this. We wont be surprised if the chinese usurp major land areas of your country and your cry baby PM will rush to the US to seek help. If you want you could seek help from us also.

Sir, Those at the fronts , must have the decisive role. Atleast, they could confront the opponents. For , instance, Chinese intrusion, it would have been great performance ,if indian soldiers could confront with them and shot them back or vice versa. But the result would have been different, next time before incursion, chines would definitely weigh the conditions and pros and cons of each aspect. No defence minister, stops the soldier to take appropriate action at the befitted time.

This happens almost every instance. The Gandhi family and Congress have messed up the country and the people of India and to some extent the disciplined Indian Army generals, Air Marshals and Admirals are equally to be blamed. It is time to support the BJP government under the leadership of Narendra Modi to correct as much as possible in the shortest possible time the military strength plus increase stock piles of long range of missiles and the Nuke bombs to surpass China.

They understand only one language. Increase quality personnel in all wings of forces and give them the best training in shortest possible time. In most countries, I travel, it is compulsory to do military training in high schools for 6 months to one year and they have nationalism to the highest level.

There is a reason why Mr Verma is no longer with the Indian army. The guy is a liability. A rabble-rouser like Mr Verma should not be let anywhere near the Indian diplomatic service. He can have as much fun as he likes while he blogs on about matters that he deems important, but at the end of the day he is no more than the Indian version of the Pakistani clown, Zaid Hamid.

Let these two loopy loons engage in virtual warfare and see to it that you keep them far away from the political channels that truly matter. The writer of this comment is probably from Congress or CPI. Both parties which have sold out India and indians for their own gain. In hindsight, if China had given the governing of Hong Kong to Britain, for a very long time again, and had made the condition about the welfare of her citizens a priority, perhaps it would have helped Taiwan be more positive in outlook.

Also, Hong Kong was more prosperous and in certain ways, governed with more responsibility than Britain, herself.

It really does seem, that China inherited, apart from India, a border situation where there is Taiwan, where the people are Chinese, but are reticent that they will be not free citizens in China. Also, Vietnam was helped by China in the war against the U. The North Koreans did not engage the Chinese, being a friendly nation in the past. China does not seem to be having any national issues with North Korea. What was commendable to everyone in the region, but I was a bit underwhelmed, is the fact that Hong Kong became a part of China, and Britain was proud and happy to make the transfer.

Any navy can avoid combat in the Indian Ocean, and traverse the ocean, without great effort. And, so can India.

The Indian sea lane to the Malacca is pretty advantageous to India. She can go south a distance, and then proceed east. Also, the Middle East has no naval force, which is known. Karachi is needed as both a sea port, and a naval port.

The surface to sea cruise missile can be the best anti-warship deterrent. The anti-air missile is the best sea bearing anti-air deterrent. We can have a very relevant navy, with the best relevant training. The sea south of Tamil Nadu has to be patrolled. Our country is governed by the people who can easily turn victory into defeat,advantage into disadvantage. What else to expect from this incompetent government??? Neither able to manage the economy nor the borders…. It is regretful that we Indians have a habit of gross incompetence when it comes to defending the nation.

The history is a living proof. Long before the British subjugated Indians, a fanatic horde from the North entered India on horsebacks and inflicted violence of un-parallel proportion. The fragmentation of the Rajput kingdoms into warring states and a lack of united leadership offered open invitation to the foreign invaders.

They conquered one state after another and spread Islam with their swords with ease. Today the wolves are at the door again. What is India doing to prevent a repeat of the history? Here are some thoughts. The only way to prevent war is to get ready to win a war should the enemy start one.

The invaders will think twice. This is no time to rule by inaction as has been the history of the current government. A mobilization must begin without fanfare, but calculated and well resourced. This process has to begin now.

In a parallel move India must engage in a serous dialog with US and NATO for joint projects, information sharing and technology transfer. The threat is regional and Japan faces similar challenges as India. US has global consideration and is seriously concerned that China may use its internal unrest to start a foreign adventure.

Shut up shoaib paki mulle, mind your own business. Just worry about your defense. Always remember kargil thrashing.
