Summary / Abstract (Note) | India is the world largest democracy, the second most populous nation, one of the fastest growing economies, the fourth largest armed forces in the world and universally acknowledged to be an emerging global power. In 2010 joint study by the US National Intelligence Council and the European Union declared it as the world's third most powerful nation to the pleasant yet some disbelief of even a number of Indians! Yet India's progress and prosperity, it human development indices and the wide spectrum of security challenges confronting it, both internal and external, appear as varied and telling as the endemic diversity of India's demographic, social linguistic, religious, character and content besides a lack in economic inclusiveness or an equitable growth pattern. While millions are racing up the ladder of affluence, many more still live in sub-Sahara like conditions in abject poverty. |
