Advocating clarity, coherence and reform, this book draws focus to the need for a unified and comprehensive approach to India’s National Security. Not only has it become increasingly important that India’s potential security threats, both internal and external, are reviewed, but there is also a need to integrate strategies against non-traditional elements and challenges. In delving into such trends, the book provides recommendations on modernization, procurement, force management, de-radicalization, cyber security, space security, intelligence, psychological warfare, and strategic actions, among other essential factors. Reflecting on both threats and challenges emanating out of an increasingly complex and ever evolving geopolitical landscape, it argues for internal stability and external autonomy; calling for a National Security Strategy that is long-term, systematic, and consistent.
