Energising aerospace industry: a national security imperative / Gupta, Nishant   Journal Article
Gupta, Nishant Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract It was surprising that whereas every country wanted to produce her own war material, in India, even very senior officials and Ministers wanted to remain dependent on foreign countries and government for military hardware and would not take any initiative for local production. These people did not understand that a country must not remain forever dependent on another country for her military requirement as, in the event of a war breaking out, that country could stop supplies, putting the receiving country in dire difficulties when her need would be the most acute.

Geopolitical perspective: Tibet / Mongia, Raj   Journal Article
Mongia, Raj Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract A region in the far reaches of the Himalayas, Tibet looms large in the imagination. It is the original home of the Dalai Lama, one of the great spiritual leaders of our time. Tibetan Buddhism inspires millions worldwide with the twin values of wisdom and compassion. The Chinese takeover of the country six decades ago also shows another side of Tibet- that of a passionate symbol of freedom in the face of political oppression. International sympathy has kept the Dalai Lama's appeals for autonomy of the world's political agenda, but in the light of China's political and economic gains, there is fear that Tibet is in danger of being forgotten by the world. As the Dalai Lama grows older and China threatens to intervene in the selection of Tibet' s next spiritual leader, many wonder whether there is any hope for the cause of Tibet or will it become a casualty of globalization.

The heavy dependence of government organizations, business, economic activities and military affairs of information and communication technology by (ICT) necessitates incorporation of cyber technology into our strategic calculation.

Summary/Abstract Pakistan has been in existence for more than six decades but the state has not been able to define its identity till date. Pakistan has been a nation of contradictions; it has shared an ambiguous relationship with Islam, tried to embrace Western notions of modernity, and , at the same time, tried retaining the orthodox Islamic identity, has an overpowering and ambitious army which has ruled the nation for more than 30 years directly, and nearly an equal period with a civilian façade, but has still struggled periodically to go back to the domestic order controlled by the fractured political leadership and has suffered a deep national identity crisis.
