In this issue
Geopolitics’ September, 2020 edition mainly focusses on the recent flareup of India-China hostilities at the Line of Actual Control (LAC) and containment strategies for the same. The issue also carries detailed articles on indigenisation of the Indian aerospace and defence industry for self-reliance, and interorganisational cooperation between the Indian armed forces and paramilitary units. The edition also carries enlightening writeups and reports on India’s upcoming Agni-VI Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) project, Indian Army’s artillery modernisation drive, and the ongoing robust developmental initiatives in the newly formed union territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh. The ‘Periscope’ section carries a report on the recent opening up of the defence manufacturing sector to 74 percent Foreign Direct Investment under the automatic route. A special story on the significance of the upcoming US presidential elections impacting India’s national interests in the ‘Diplomacy’ section takes the issue to a logical conclusion. The September, 2020 edition is a must read for everybody.

HIGH TIME FOR AGNI-VI INTERCONTINENTAL BALLISTIC MISSILE
Now is the time for the NDA-3 government to prove its political will by swiftly approving the Agni- VI thermonuclear ICBM programme which will push India into the elite league of military superpowers like USA, Russia and China.
