| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The goal of achieving self-reliance in defence manufacture has got a renewed thrust with the recent enhancement in the FDI limit from 26 per cent to 49 per cent. That India has the unenviable distinction of being the biggest importer of military equipment in the world reflects poorly on a country that aspires to great power status. As a 'net security provider' in the Indian Ocean' it is also a core strategic vulnerability. |
