| Summary/Abstract |
As India's regional and global aspirations grow with its increasing economic clout, it will be forced to build up its capacity to project power in its national interest to ensure that the region is not destabilized by outside elements that may be inimical to it. The establishment of an effective and responsive RDF towards this end is inescapable. To be able to do so requires that India take a long hard look at its requirements and reassess its capabilities. It needs to quickly put in place structures that will ensure that its RDF is able to provide what is required at it so that in the words at Rahul Gandhi, "We stop being scared about how the world will impact us, and we step out and worry about how we will impact the world."
