The book is structured thematically and divided into different sections which each delve into different facets of India’s defence and security policy. Section One discusses the origins of the Indian armed forces during the East India Company and later during the British Raj. It highlights the interface and interaction between the military (especially the army) and the Indian society on the one hand and the executive including the bureaucracy and the military on the other. It also considers how and why the military is subservient to the civilian bureaucracy. It illustrates that India inherited a certain structure from the British Raj and even after almost seven decades, India is following more or less the same system. Only modest changes have been introduced, brought about due to severe crisis and not because of the alacrity, foresight and vision of the executive, the bureaucracy, the intelligentsia and the policymakers.
The book of Indian Defence Policy is an essential read for students, scholars and especially policymakers who want to familiarise themselves with India’s defence and security policy, the external and internal security challenges facing India, the numerous problems and limitations which might stymie India’s rise to great power status and solutions to overcome the problems, and the role of interest groups and other domestic factors on India’s defence and security policy.
