Question
Explain any four components of India’s security strategy.

Answer

  1. The first component was strengthening its military capabilities because India has been involved in conflicts with its neighbours Pakistan in 1947-48, 1965. 1971 and 1999; and China in 1962.
  2. The Second component of India’s security strategy has been jug to strengthen international norms and international institutions to protect its security interests.
  3. The third component of Indian Security strategy is geared towards meeting security challenges within the country.
  4. Finally, there has been an attempt in India to develop its economy in a way that the vast mass of citizens are lifted out of poverty and misery and huge economic inequalities are not allowed to exit. The attempt has not quite succeeded; we are still a very poor and unequal country. Yet democratic politics allows spaces for articulating the voice of the poor and the deprived citizens.
