Force Magazine




























































  • ‘If We Could Sign a Formal Treaty of Friendship with the Soviet Union in 1971, Why not an Informal Partnership With the US, in National Interest, Now?’
    The peculiarity of India is that its external defence and internal security are like conjoined twins, not yet separated by surgery, even though at times there is an illusion of severance. While FORCE has always treated the strategic and the internal as extensions of one another, in the run-up to DefExpo 2012, we decided to engage a long time contributor and former Chairman Chiefs of Staff Committee, Admiral Arun Prakash (retd) on some critical national security issues. Complimenting that, FORCE had an extensive conversation with recently retired home secretary, G.K. Pillai on challenges within. We spoke to these two officers after retirement because while not having constraints of office, they still remain relevant to the establishment. As a member of the task force on national security, Admiral Arun Prakash continues to have a ring side view of the corridors of power. He puts seven critical national security issues that bedevil India’s policy-makers in perspective. G.K. Pillai, on the hand, only a few months into his retirement, has been closely associated with India’s counter-terror and counter-Maoist policy-making, having taken over as home secretary a few months after the 26 November 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai

Title: Mr.
Comments: Dear Chief Editor of FORCE, It is good indeed to highlight various news of Indian defense. But Indian defense and military equipment (Made in India) is very poor and in worst in quality. I believe, Indian Gov and defense equipment companies (Indian) are not innovative and with poorest of poor infrastucture,most of workers are illiterate and most of them are ill-educated. Next is India is so corrupt and in neglect. Indians are working abroad are quite hard and serious worker,properly trained and expertise in their won field. But it is bad luck, when India do some thing,it broakes in peices. Why this things are happening? There is no fundamental basic research,innovation, dream and seriousness among poor Indian. I believe, India always and continously depend on West,not a singly best quality things are available in India such a nuts and bolts.India is far behind probably 50 miilion miles away,compare to defense and daily use goods,can't be compared to group of smaller countries as Tiwan,S-Korea,and many other countries.China has broken her stupidy within last 30 years,and now super power in SEA. Corruption nad lack of work culture has eaten up INDIA. The ministers and officers are love to talk "TALL TELL" India will remain 3rd world poor and dirty nation always.I think this country will never come out from dirty well and always wallowing in dirty mud. Greatly sorry. RSVP. Sincerly yours, David Ghosh
