| Summary/Abstract |
Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) was once again in the news for devastation and intense trauma associated with hundreds of unnatural deaths. This time, the cause was not the commonly known beast of terrorism and / or cross border attacks, rather the damage was caused by nature’s fury in the form of unprecedented floods and inundation.

| Summary/Abstract |
East Asia is a region of contradictions. While it contributes an equal share to world Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as North America, it is also home to four flashpoints: the Taiwan Straits, Korean Peninsula, East China Sea and South China Sea. Countries in the region are bound to each other by economic linkages through trade and production networks, which have led the region to have a joint stake in its shared prosperity. However, increasing economic interdependence, while being a deterrent for conflict, falls short of becoming a cause for peace. Inability to resolve the historical legacies and boundary disputes, the competition for resources, the rise of China, the US pivot to Asia, the unstable regime of North Korea and the changing Japanese security identity are some of the multifarious security problems for the region. This constant clash of strategic aspirations to dominate the region ensures that military instruments will play a critical role in Asia.

| Summary/Abstract |
The India Ocean Region (IOR), while being a major source for energy security and trade, is also a cauldron of instability due to conflicts, piracy and terrorism. The major power consider the IOR to be of great strategic significance. China too, is steadily enhancing its footprint in the IOR. India’s geographical location gives it a natural influential position over the major sea lines of communication and choke points in the Indian Ocean. Its aerospace capabilities are vital elements of national power for securing interests in the region. Hence, these capabilities need to be developed and acquired to match the imperatives of the time.

| Summary/Abstract |
Modern warfare has reached a strategic infection point in the wake of different geo-political challenge, global terrorism menace, different economic challenges, violence emanating from religious radicalisation and internal security challenges. Warfare is no longer the sum total of capabilities, of putting more personnel, capital and technology on the battlefield, but of better situational awareness, contextual knowledge, discerning disposition and homogenised action.

However, a month later, China sent fishing and patrol boats to the vicinity of the disputed islands.
