FAUJI INDIA - July 2019

I dette nummeret

The definitive majority obtained by the BJP in the recent Lok Sabha elections will now give the second time Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, the freedom to implement his ambitious strategy to put India in the league of big powers. But the jury is still out on how much he can achieve. In his last tenure, his deliveries at many levels fell below the promises he had made. Even then, the majority of the voters wanted him back as he and his party was seen to have a plan for India's future, while the opposition parties only wanted to stall Mr Modi's return without offering the country an alternative. On his return, Mr Modi announced a cabinet that could certainly deliver on a number of issues, including national security.
The need of the hour is to qualitatively improve the quality of our leadership in all fields across the country to achieve good governance, as also to address the multiple politico-military challenges, especially terrorism and insurgencies. A blueprint is needed to deal with J&K is essential to put an end to the regular deaths of good men, fighting a directionless conflict. And the same applies to those who repeatedly fall in the line of duty in the Maoist infested territories. For that, our political, military, para-military, police and state leadership must stop fighting turf battles and work together. Leadership from the top in all fields has always been and will remain a critical winning factor.
