New-Spy-Kids-of-Intelligence-Burea

Recently in a report regarding intelligence bureau, it was disclosed that the agency is hiring MBA, B.Tech pass-outs and doctors for the jobs of spies. This step was taken by many students who were already working in any private company and left that job for joining IB. This job gives them job satisfaction along with thrill and adventure. This interest of new pass-outs from different corners of the nation is making a new era of intelligence and educated spies that can be trained easily with more modern knowledge and vast areas of operations. Heavy politics and underfunding had made it little weak. But, with fresh new minds this job will regenerate the agency. This will also revive the faith of people in IB which had almost extinct from people due to increased terror attacks and spreading terror groups, the terror attack of 26/11 was one of the known attacks. According to the IB officials, the agency is going through a shortage of personals by 30% which is a lack of nearly 8000 officers. But as youngsters are showing a keen interest in this job it will certainly give them a glorious future.

Well this agency has a long history. Intelligence bureau was formed in British era to keep an eye on Russian forces to safeguard British from them. But finally got its identity in 1947 after independence. After that IB was trained by Russian KBG till The Soviet Union got dismantled. 1962 Sino-India war and 1965 Indo-Pak war witnessed, lapse of intelligence resulted into parting out RAW from IB. RAW was handed over to external intelligence branch.New-Spy-Kids-of-Intelligence-Burea

India’s intelligence and detective agencies are doing best in pacifying the threats with the aim to deteriorate India’s peace. Intelligence Bureau and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) that comes under ministry of home affairs are the best performing intelligence agencies of the world and comes in top list with top rankers like U.S.’s CIA, Israel’s Mossad, Britain’s MI6 and others. It plays a crucial role in countering foreign conspiracies and sometimes decides the fate of lives in case of any big terror planning. One of the close enemies of RAW and IB is ISI, the Intelligence Agency of Pakistan. ISI has been alleged to be involved with terrorists in many attacks and conspiracies against India. Recently the technology missile Omar-I, which was successfully done by Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan was assumed to be transferred by ISI by some media sources. IB has been efficiently working in the country and also alerted police for some big, going to be happen. Like IB warned repeatedly for Mumbai attacks and gave prior information to police about Hyderabad blast.These days, the intelligence agencies play a crucial role in maintaining country’s peace. These agencies have to work a lot in order to secure the nation from attacks and other terror activities. The secrecy and the level of task they perform, deserve a salute as the risk of life is at the peak. As the new generation is showing interest in these fields as a bright career, this will make IB a top notch agency with best-trained officers and will surely avert terror attacks and life loss.

SAARC-Satellite-Indias-Gift-to-Neighbors

SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) is on the way to achieve another milestone. In a fresh move, India held a meeting with other SAARC members for finalizing the project of SAARC satellite which is exclusively for regional grouping. Officials from ISRO and external affairs ministry attended the meet with other officials of SAARC nations. This initiative was ordered by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last year after one month of his joining and made its announcement in Kathmandu during 18th SAARC summit (26-27 November 2014).

The role of the satellite will be weather forecasting tele-medicine, tele-education, disaster management and crop productivity and termed as a gift to SAARC nations. The meet was successfully concluded with complete cooperation from all member nations. Some doubts were also raised during the meet like Afghanistan has a satellite but has some area out of its reach, so how will it work? Nepal is completely emphasizing on disaster management. Bhutan officials praised the move. This satellite will help them as they don’t have any satellite of their own. According to ISRO’s schedule, the satellite has to be launched before SAARC day which falls on 8th December 2016.SAARC-Satellite-Indias-Gift-to-Neighbors

SAARC is a group of 8 nations (with 9 observers) which is formed to strengthen the trade and boost the economy of South Asian nations. Some nations have shown their interest in it. Myanmar is trying to get the status of the permanent member from its current observer status. While Russia also want the observer status of SAARC. The group nations have also showed their activeness in an anti-terrorism field during 12th and 13th summit.

SAFTA South Asian Free Trade area was also a step to bolster the relations of South Asian nations. It was signed on 6th January 2004 during 12th SAARC summit held in Islamabad, Pakistan. But the agreement came into force after two years in January 2006. SAFTA aims at providing equitable benefit and pacing up the competition among the member countries. It increased the economic cooperation trade to a new level.

SAARC VISA exemption was also an appreciable step toward the establishment of harmony. Last year in September, the officials form SAARC have discussed this issue. The meet was aimed toward SAARC VISA facilitation and VISA exemption sticker scheme. The immigration officials discussed to provide VISA exemption for common people in the SAARC countries. Currently only eminent personals and government officials are allowed for VISA exemption.

SAARC has been very close to Modi which was witnessed when he invited all SAARC nations on his swearing-in ceremony. This step cemented the closeness of Modi with SAARC with the neighbor first policy. Well, SAARC satellite will be a major step in building close relations with neighbors. Modi’s step will not only help some under developed countries but also support nations in vast areas. Indo-Pak relations are also supposed to be rebalanced through it. The active participation of Pak is a positive sign for India. If India went ahead along with cordial relation with close neighbors then, the development will also be effected. As the military ties with Pak and China are not so good. So it is necessary to equalize the relations in some other fields. India’s contribution in Asian Infrastructure Bank (AIB) is also a good step by India toward international ties and these steps in various fields will lead to international peace.

GD: Which is Better Foreign Acquisition or Indigenous Production

GD-Which-is-Better-Foreign-Acquisition-or-Indigenous-Production

GD: Which is Better Foreign Acquisition or Indigenous Production. Foreign Acquisition: India after being independent, acquired jets, artillery guns, jeeps, etc. from foreign countries. These added strength to the armed forces but simultaneously became a matter of discussion over the cases and controversies that followed these deals.

Pros:
Fast Improvement in Military Strength – After independence, when India was not economically stable, faced a war with Pakistan and after 15 years India faces a war with China. These wars initiated a requirement of modern weapons and machines for battle. So India acquired MiG-21, MiG 29, jeeps and later on acquired Bofors gun, Mirage 2000, INS Viraat, Jaguar etc. These weapons made India fully prepared to face the war and also gain victory.

Improve Relations – India has acquired many warheads from Russia, France, U.S. and other countries. These deals have improved the relations of India with these developed economies and also tightened military relations with them.

Cons:
Scams and Scandals

  • Jeep Scandal – Just after achieving independence, Indian government faced a major corruption scandal that got surfaced which was India’s first biggest corruption scandal worth Rs 80 lakhs for 200 jeeps.
  • Bofors Scam – Bofors guns, which were the game changer in Kargil war, were also hit by corruption. The deal was between India and Sweden for 410 field howitzer guns. Some government officials were accused of receiving kickbacks (or you can say bribe) for finalizing the deal.
  • Augusta Westland Scam – A fresh example, named as chopper gate, is the deal between India and Augusta Westland for Rs. 36 billion. Some politicians and military officials were accused of accepting a bribe for finalizing this contract of 12 Agusta Westland AW101 helicopter which has to be used for VVIP duties.GD-Which-is-Better-Foreign-Acquisition-or-Indigenous-Production

Controversies –   Rafale controversy was a citation of it. Rafale’s deal was started in a different way and came to a different end unexpectedly. The deal was for 126 jets out of which 18 will be transported to India while left 108 will be developed by HAL in India. But money related issues and DASAULT’s rejection for taking a guarantee of those 108 jets was the cause of delays in the deal. And when P.M. Narendra Modi visited France this year, he signed the deal of 36 jets which would be acquired by India in fly away conditions. The deal is still covered on the pages.

Indigenous Production
These days India is preforming well in producing warheads indigenously, which seems to be a better option than acquiring from foreign nations. Prime minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Make in India’ has taken India to a next level of self-dependency. Tejas LAC, ARJUN tank, INS Vikrant are some of the examples of India’s fight for a self-productive drive.

Decreases Dependency– Indigenous development of warheads decreases the dependency of the Indian government over other countries for modern technology and weapons. This will make India a self-dependent country.

Increases Technological Advancement– The technological advancement in indigenous development lures the new generation towards the nation’s defense production. Idea forge is a company formed by IIT Powai, alumni collaborated with DRDO in developing UAV Netra, with a major purpose of anti-terrorism and counter insurgency.

Increases Military Dominance– Indigenous development of military weapons with new technology and efficient performance of warheads makes a distinct image of India in the world. India has world’s third largest army and world’s biggest volunteer army. If India got required weapons indigenously, then India will become incomparably strong.

Well, some short comings are also there in the case of indigenous development like Indian Army had sent back Arjun tank back to DRDO after encountering many problems in it. But up-gradation can rectify the problem in machines. As India is going fast in economic and military development, it is necessary to become self-dependent and modernize its weapons.

MP Dr. Ravindra Babu Pandula About INDIAN ARMY

In NewsHour one of the MP Ravindra Babu Pandula of Telugu Desam Party in his defence said that people of this country join Indian army just to get subsidised alcohol and free rations. This doesn’t make me angry because he said so about army knowing the fact that he doesn’t know anything about what Indian army is, what makes me angry is how such people are opted by us. How such people reach such a position in the society. It’s evident that Ravindra Babu Pandula is the dumbest MP I have every heard of.

Do Army Require War to Retain Respect?

Do-Army-Require-War-to-Retain-Respect

Do Army Require War to Retain Respect? Indian Armed Forces are the backbone of India and it always stays ahead in all situation which is not uncontrollable or unable to handle. Indian Army is one of the strongest forces in the world with wide range of weapons and sufficient manpower to secure the nation and avert any attack. India has gone through many wars after it got independence in 1947. Three with Pakistan and one with China and these wars have taught India a lot of warfare and soldiers up-gradation.

In a recent statement by our Defense Minister Manohar Parikkar, which stats that Indian Army’s respect has fallen down because it  has not gone through any war in last few decades.

Well, this statement has made a huge space in media and raised many arguments and issues regarding Indian Army.

Army need a more than expected funds and infrastructure to come equal with its growing rivals, China and Pakistan. As we have seen that India is lagging behind both these rivals in the race of nuclear warheads. In north east states, there are some of the areas where terrains are so tough that Indian Army need 1 day to reach. Whereas China on the opposite side of border can reach in just few hours. On the other hand, the issue of One Rank One Pension came to limelight as retired soldiers are protesting for its implementation. Government as allocated just Rs. 1000 crore in the budget for OROP, but actually it requires about Rs 8500 crore to manage the need of scheme.Do-Army-Require-War-to-Retain-Respect

Well, Indian Army don’t need any war to regain respect as the respect still has the same level as earlier. The thing that matters is the focus on military to equalize the strength with the growing enemy. Daily, many soldiers sacrifice their life to protect the nation and creates a void of emotions among family and friends. It doesn’t means that would not be given respect because they didn’t fought a war. They deserve the respect because they did what nobody can do for those whom he call his brothers and sisters surviving freely, leaving their security on his shoulders. Army’s role is not just limited to security. When disasters, armed forces reaches faster than anyone. During J&K flood, Nepal earthquake, Hud hud storm hit Andhra Pradesh and many more examples are sufficient to prove the position of forces in Indian status. Indian Navy also made Indians in Yemen to meet their families in India. These activities makes armed forces an elite organization of India. And, an incomparable job that they do, deserve a salute.

Respect is not about the time of task we pays, but it is about the type of task we do.

Indian Army has always been a respectful organization and will always be. The courage, sacrifice and dedication for duty makes them more than a man. There have been some delays in the fund allocation but, Army is still strong and will always be in the future.

Why India Need To Bother About China?

Why-India-need-to-bother-about-China

China, one of the neighbors of India which shares about 4000 km of border with India. China has been the biggest contender for India as it is the nation who defeated India in 1962 Indo-Sino war. Well, stats shows that China’s army counts the biggest army in the world and also the tempo of the military modernization is a matter of concern for other nations. The increased Pakistan- China friendship and China’s expanding military power is an alarm for India. Till now, this year has been remarkable in the military development of China.

Why India Need To Bother About China?

S-400 Deal – S-400 air defense system is a master piece of the Russian military which is famous for its new and superb technology in warfare. This system will promote the air dominance of China along its border. Its 400 km range is the eye pointing feature which makes a large area under its range including New Delhi also. Also, it will protect the China’s new air defense identification zone in The East China Sea. Currently, China has S-300 system with a range of 300 km which can only target Taiwan’s northwestern coast and also makes capital of India and South Korea out of reach. But procurement of S-400 will help it to extend its target range.Why-India-need-to-bother-about-China

Artificial Islands in The South China SeaRecently media reported that the construction of artificial islands in The South China Sea is almost completed. China’s foreign minister said that the facilities will be built on the island including military and defense also. The construction of these islands was started after China reclaimed about 2000 acres in disputed sea (according to U.S.) last year. These islands were built to bolster its position against other East Asian countries and United States.  In May 2015, the presence of two large artillery vehicles on one of the artificial island became a headline.

Construction of all Civilian Ships According to Military Standards – China is discussing for National Defense Transport Law, which will allot money to shipbuilders for additional money required for construction of civilian ships according to military standards and pattern. This will enhance the potential of the civilian ships to work as a military ship. The law will also provide insurance to the ship builder in case of any tragedy or damage occurs to the ship. U.S. had also used its civilian fleets for maritime tasks during World War II.

Successful Trail of Hypersonic Glide Vehicle – The confirmation of test of “Wu-14” (dubbed by U.S) held in mid of June this year. It is the 4th test of PLA in 18 months. It can go up to the speed of 10 Mach. The special feature is maneuverable ability which helps it to penetrate through a missile defense system. Well, it seemed to be a response to the continued interference of U.S. in The South China Sea (U.S spy plane’s flight in The South China Sea). This test shows the positive progress of Chinese military.

India is the fastest growing economy in the world and is heading to a bright future. But it’s better to concentrate on development after ensuring its safety and defense preparedness, especially when it have a neighbor like China. So Indian armed forces need to be more alert and emphasize on their weapons and strategies to pacify any action from neighbors.

Indian--Ocean-Region–Possession-of-the-Powerful

“The true power lies with the country that dominates the seas” – by Alfred Mahan, US Navy flag Officer. India are China are biggest contender in the race of military and economic platforms. China these days got lots of publicity regarding the issue of South China Sea that started with the Senkaku Island. This issue made China’s relation a bit sour with Vietnam and some other countries and recently with India too. More over China’s military extension toward Indian borders is also a matter of concern. Construction of railway network near border and proposed railway network to its close friend Pakistan was revealed in Sino-Pak Economic Corridor. Indian Ocean also plays a major role in relations of these two countries. China see Indian Ocean as the best way to speed up trade. China’s 60% energy import passes through sea routes which will increase to 75% in upcoming years. So, China is taking keen interest in expanding its arms towards Indian Ocean for ease of trade and domination over Indian Ocean region.

String of Pearls by China

An initiative of China where each pearl is meant for ports having investment from China. The revival of maritime silk route is seen as an attempt to counter “String of Pearls” argument. The motive of this strategy include different phases. According to the sources the motives ranges from resources and commercial interests to diplomatic and finally security and military interests. Well this step is to pacify China’s rival India’s developing and strengthening status. Pakistan, an all-weather friend of China got investment for construction of port in Gwadar. China has also made investments in Chittagong in Bangladesh, Kyaukphyu in Myanmar, and Hambantota in Sri Lanka. The major aim behind string of pearls seems to impose dominance over South China Sea.Indian--Ocean-Region–Possession-of-the-Powerful

Iron Curtain by India

To deter Chinese presence in Indian Ocean region (IOR) and to become a true blue water navy, India made a strategy to neutralize the Chinese effect in IOR. This strategy was termed as IRON CURTAIN. India is currently discussing on fields of investment in Nepal Bhutan and Bangladesh. India had started construction of switte port in 2010 in Myanmar. Along with this, India became successful in setting up posts in Mauritius, Seychelles, Mozambique and Madagascar. India has also got berthing right in omen and Vietnam which will help India in expanding its influence.

Conclusion

Indian Ocean Region is always seen like a treasure box due to resource deposits, trade and military’s point of view. India’s step to construct Chabahar port also made a positive step toward expanding strength. As well as India’s cordial military relations with Mauritius (exported Indian coast guard’s barracuda) , Seychelles to whom India gifted PS constant petrol vessel last year and Dornier 228 maritime reconnaissance aircraft in 2013 and similar relations with other countries in contact with Indian Ocean. While China want its dominance in Indian Ocean to occupy a major position in trade and commerce. If China has largest army then, India possess great minds. India’s foreign policy has played a crucial role in establishing sound relations with its neighbors. But still India is boosting its military and defense sectors for bad times.

INS VIRAAT – A Lost Tale for Indian Navy

INS-VIRAAT–A-Lost-Tale-for-Indian-Navy

Indian Navy has many beasts and long history behind them. Some of them are retired, some are under development and some are serving in Navy. But some ships have proved that ‘Old is Gold’. Here we are talking about INS Viraat.

It was expected to be decommissioning INS Viraat by 2015-16, but some upgradation made in it increased its life till 2020. As the maintenance cost of the ship was increasing, the decommissioning was later scheduled in 2016-17. Well, the future of the ship is assumed to be same as that of old INS Vikrant which hard to convert in a museum. Indian Navy gave three options for INS Viraat after decommissioning- sell it in an auction, making it a museum, or using it for target practice. But the idea of converting to a museum seems to be a bad choice as seen in the case of INS Vikraant. According to a Navy official, the average shelf life of an aircraft carrier is approx. 25 years. It has completed more than 50 years and has been in Indian Navy for more than 25 years which makes it different and special in the world. But, INS has over lived its life span. After the deal of Admiral Gorshkov for Indian navy as INS Vikramaditya, Indian Navy emphasized on new and good ships.INS-VIRAAT–A-Lost-Tale-for-Indian-Navy

Its replacement will be INS Vikrant which was undocked a few days ago and is undergoing trails.

INS Viraat is the oldest aircraft carrier in the world which was built in the British era and still serving in Indian Navy. It is expected to get decommissioned in 2016-17. It was commissioned in 1959 in Royal Navy as HMS Hermes and later in 1987, it was transferred to India in a deal worth $ 63 million. It had got a few breaks during service, like in 1993, when water flooded into its engine but later it came back in service in 1995 and between 1999 & 2001 after which it came with several new upgraded parts extending its life till 2010. Latest rift was seen in 2012 which increased its life till 2016. It has four onboard squadrons of INAS 330, 552, 321 and 300. And still, it supports Indian Navy with INS Vikramaditya in service. INS Viraat has done a great job during its service and is going to leave the Indian Navy in next few years.

Indian Navy has seen many wars and has made India proud on every platform. But, as the need of modern and highly strong weapons and fleets is observed, then the aging machines need to be replaced. Compromise with national security is never spared. Not only Indian Navy but Indian Air Force is also heading to replace its aircrafts with indigenous and foreign bought aircrafts. Similarly, army is also on the way to upgrade the existing weapons and including new artillery guns and missiles for strengthening itself.  Replacement is a rule of nature and it is essential for survival. Either you adapt according to the requirement or get replaced. So Viraat is going to be decommissioned and will be known for its exceptionally long life it served in Indian waters.

Story Of Major Udai Singh PARA Special Force

Major Udai Singh SC, SM was born at 2.15 pm on Monday October 7, 1974 in Allahabad. He had a happy, contented childhood spent in small cantonment towns across the country. St. Patricks at Deolali was his first school, after which he studied at St Georges, Agra & APS Delhi. His formative & most memorable years were spent at the Army Public School, Dagshai from where he passed out in 1992. Not one for academics he excelled in games & sports & other extra curricular activities. He loved his alma mater & was forever grateful for the opportunity he’d had, taking time off to visit it as often as he could in the years to follow.

Udai, graduated from Deshbandhu College, Delhi with an honors degree in Political Science and was soon absorbed as a management trainee with the Taj Mansingh, Delhi. What he aspired to was a career in the Special Forces of the Indian Army

“I do not wish to spend my life waiting on hotel guests” he’d say. “I want to be that 5 star guest”.

His ambition was partly fulfilled on passing out from the IMA in June 1997. He was commissioned into the first battalion of the Parachute Regiment.

“My life in the army”, he confessed to a friend, ” is doomed if I do not clear the probation”.

Clear it he did and was with the paltan for five wonderful years before volunteering for the Special Group – the mavericks. He soon became one of them.
