Indian Army sources said there was no opposition to the proposals made by the chief at the ongoing commanders’ conference, just differences of opinion.
The ranking vindicates the reformist measures undertaken by the Modi government. But further improvement requires vanguard action from states and local governments.
In India, only 17% of public sector banks and 25% of private sector banks claimed to have an internal strategy for integrating climate risks into their risk management framework.
Economists say there are weaknesses in India’s GDP data. But statisticians claim the accusations are based on flawed understanding, saying while GDP has problems, the economists are looking in the wrong places.
Both the governments expressed their commitment to strengthening their maritime cooperation to strengthen the maritime safety and security framework in the region.
The past 5 years provide a sort of template for forecasting the next. The initial years were hectic: MyGov (Israeli copy paste) for crowdsourced ideas to dictate policy; photoOps for breathless policy roll out; Monkey Baath; Some genuine people with listening ears – in Railways, Defense and power; New bottle of old wine in a Niti Aayog. And then as suddenly the party was over – fizzled out with power grabs aimed at the judiciary, the RBI, then some state-sponsored lynching, followed up with Quixotic decisions. The method in the madness is being repeated –a much advertised ” 100 Days ‘ program for ministries” being the first shot fired. At this rate, a well thought-through and discussed policy seems to be reserved for another monkey bath on a rainy day. Maybe, waiting for the inevitable implementation of Manusmriti, tearing-up of the Constitution and an organized riot or three would be the logical progression after another Salvo of traipsing around the world for selfies with whites genuflecting in exchange for a share in our family silver. NDP? Nice thought over a cup of tea, maybe..
I beg to differ from the writer.
Firstly, I don’t think that a National Security doctrine can be made public.
Second, Kargil was no victory. It was a military disaster, where Bahadur Jawans were sent to climb unprotected heights and were swatted like flies. It is only after deployment of the Bofors artillery guns, strafing of the heights by the Indian Air Force, and the reprimand to Nawaz Sahrif by President Bill Clinton, that the battle ended. At that time we did not even have enough shells for the Bofors guns.
Thirdly major defence procurement from Bofors to Rafaele have been bogged down by controversy. Instead of having Joint Parliamentary Commiittees (JPC) to investigate after the event it would be better to have a JPC for defence procurement before beginning the exercise. That way charges of corruption will also be minimized.
The able author should have also incorporated the horrific incidents of hatred politics, communal riots, mob lynching which covers “internal security”. Pending justice and providing mainstream politics to marginalized can not led nation GDP, high ranking doing business with India.

Socialist Modi cannot afford National security. He can afford only freebies subsidies loan waivers.
