असम, नागालैंड और मणिपुर के कुछ हिस्सों से हटा सेना को स्पेशल पॉवर देनेवाला कानून AFSPA। केंद्र सरकार के इस फैसले का समर्थन करते हैं नितिन गोखले। उत्तरपूर्व राज्यों में ढाई दशक रहकर उन्होंने इस कानून के उपयोग और दुरुपयोग को नजदीक से देखा और रिपोर्ट किया है। यूं कहें तो वे इस विषय के विशेषज्ञ हैं। उन्होंने इस कानून के सदुपयोगिता पर काफी कुछ लिखा भी है। यदि पाठकवर्ग इस विषय को ठीक से समझना चाहते हैं तो पिछले दिनों भारतशक्ति में छपी उनकी लेख को जरूर पढ़ें। उसका लिंक है

रूस से कितना तेल आयात करता है भारत, प्रतिबंध लगने पर क्या होगी स्थिति?

भारत रूस से बहुत कम कच्चा तेल आयात करता है। यह हमारे आयात का एक प्रतिशत से भी कम है. कई देश भारत से 20 गुना अधिक तेल रूस से आयात करते हैं। इसी बीच अमेरिका

रूस से तेल आयात करने पर प्रतिबंध लगाने की योजना बना रहा है। खास बात यह है कि अभी तक रूस पर अमेरिका और यूरोपीय देशों ने ऊर्जा संबंधित कोई प्रतिबंध नहीं लगाया है। अगर ऐसा होता है तो भारत पर इसका क्या असर पड़ेगा? आज के इस कार्यक्रम में भारतशक्ति के प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले इसी मुद्दे का विश्लेषण कर रहे हैं।

Russian Energy Calculus And The Western Duplicity

The West may have sanctioned Russia for its invasion of Ukraine but Russian energy supplies have been exempted. The explanation lies in the overdependence of Europe on Russian gas. But the West has been asking India to shun crude oil that Russia has offered India at a discounted price. In this episode of ‘News Warrior’, Bharat Shakti & StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale decodes the Russian oil and gas export matrix and why the debate on whether India should buy Russian crude at discounted rates is a misleading one.

रूस-यूक्रेन युद्ध: भारत की रक्षा तैयारियों पर प्रभाव

As the war rages on in Ukraine and sanctions against Russia pile on, India has not taken sides despite suggestions from the West to condemn Russian aggression.

Ukraine Update: Russians Positioning Troops to Strike Kyiv

The stalled Russian mechanised formation strung in a long line on the road to Kyiv is uncoiling, readying to strike the capital city of Kyiv. Simultaneously, news pours in of Russians focussing more and more on urban centres now; they don’t seem to be in control as yet of any population centre, though. The obvious indicators of Russian intentions of taking under control the complete Ukrainian coastline are there, however, population centres along the route continue to hold out.

As the battle progresses, NATO and the US continue to arm Ukrainians to stall the Russian armour in its tracks.

Guest: Lt Gen PR Kumar (Retd) served as the Director-General Military Operations. He is a well-known speaker and an author on issues of strategic relevance and geopolitical import.

Behind Russia’s Military Operation In Ukraine

Russia had been massing troops along the border with Ukraine for days, if not months, fuelling anxiety and speculation about if and when it would attack its neighbour. The suspense ended on February 24 when Russian troops got the nod to cross the border. The West had warned Russian President Vladimir Putin against any such misadventure, saying the consequences would be severe. The U.S. and its European allies have imposed economic sanctions on Russia and are scaling it up with each day. Why then did Putin take such a big risk? In this episode of ‘News Warrior’, BharatShakti.in & StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale has the answers.

बालाकोट हमले ने बदल दी दक्षिण एशिया की भूराजनीति

इस दिन तीन साल पहले, 26 फरवरी 2019 को भारत ने वह कर दिखाया जो उसने चार दशकों में नहीं किया था - नियंत्रण रेखा (एलओसी) पार करना और पाकिस्तान के अंदर घुसकर एक आतंकवादी शिविर पर हवाई हमला कर तबाह मचाई। इस हैरतंगेज घटना ने पाकिस्तान को सकते में डाल दिया वो उससे आज भी इस सदमे से उबर नहीं सका है। इस घटना ने सीमापार से लड़ी जा रही प्रॉक्सी वार की सीरत ही बदल दी। आज डिफेंस मंत्रा पॉडकास्ट के इस एपीसोड में भारतशक्ति के प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले बता रहें हैं कि भारत ने ऐसा कदम क्यों उठाया, कैसे इसकी योजना बनाई गई और इसे सटीकता के साथ कैसे अंजाम दिया गया।

Air Combat from Glass Cockpits of Fighter Aircrafts

In our series on equipment with IAF, we have discussed about types of fighter aircrafts, operational support aircrafts like AWACS and Flight refuelling aircrafts (FRA),

The discussion in this episode is all about advanced technology systems on-board the fighter aircrafts that not only make them a potent war fighting machine but also enhances the capabilities of the pilot.

With the modernisation and rapidly advancing technology, while the weapons and the war fighting equipment have undergone huge changes, the systems on-board the fighter aircrafts have also undergone a transformation. In addition to modern avionics systems, today the fighter aircrafts are equipped with advanced systems like Head Up Display, Glass-Cockpit, Helmet Mounted Display system (HMDS) and Night Vision Goggles (NVGs).

The disadvantage is the increasing load on pilots. How far can the human brain, with all the training, cope with the increasing demand? However, all efforts are being made to automate to the maximum and allow the pilot to optimise machine refined options to a final human interface in decision making.

Guest: Air Cmdre SP singh (Retd) is an experienced fighter pilot with over 3000 hours of flying experience. He has been in the cockpit through the continuous transition that all fliers experience. Currently, he is with the Centre for Air Power Studies.

अरुणाचल प्रदेश और मिजोरम भारत के नॉर्थ ईस्‍ट के दो ऐसे राज्‍य हैं जो देश की सुरक्षा रणनीति का बड़ा हिस्‍सा रहे हैं । 20 फरवरी 1987 को इन दोनों को भारत के 23वें और 24वें राज्‍य का दर्जा मिला था। भारत का यह एक ऐसा फैसला था जिसने चीन को खासा परेशान कर दिया था। अरुणाचल प्रदेश को संपूर्ण राज्‍य का दर्जा मिलेगा इसके बारे में चीन ने कभी उम्‍मीद नहीं की थी। चीन, अरुणाचल प्रदेश की 90,000 स्‍क्‍वॉयर किलोमीटर की जमीन पर अपना दावा जताता है। चीन ने मई 2020 मेंअपने नक्‍शे में बदलाव किया. इस नए नक्‍शे में चीन ने भारत के नॉर्थ ईस्‍ट के बड़े राज्‍य अरुणाचल प्रदेश को अपनी अंतरराष्‍ट्रीय सीमाओं में दिखाया था।

आज डिफेंस मंत्रा पॉडकास्ट के साप्ताहिक कार्यक्रम में भारतशक्ति के प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले से जानिए इन दोनों राज्‍यों का वह इतिहास जिसका चीन से है एक खास नाता।

In this episode of ‘News Warrior’, BharatSshakti.In & StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale dwells on the multitude of roles played by the Coast Guard.

सियाचिन भारत के लिए क्यों है महत्वपूर्ण

सियाचिन सामरिक रूप से भारत और पाकिस्तान के लिए बहुत महत्वपूर्ण माना जाता है। करीब 20,000 फुट की ऊंचाई पर स्थित यह विश्व का सबसे ऊंचा युद्ध क्षेत्र है।

सियाचिन ग्लेशियर का साल्टोरो रिज एक विभाजन के रूप में कार्य करता है जो पीओके को चीन के साथ सीधे जोड़ने से रोकता है, जिससे उन्हें क्षेत्र में भौगोलिक सैन्य संबंध विकसित करने से रोकता है। सियाचिन पाकिस्तान के गिलगित और बाल्टिस्तान क्षेत्रों पर गहरी नजर रखने के लिए भारत के लिए एक प्रहरीदुर्ग के रूप में भी कार्य करता है। डिफेंस मंत्रा के इस एपिसोड में भारतशक्ति के संस्थापक और प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले ऑपरेशन मेघदूत के पीछे की रणनीति का विश्लेषण कर रहें हैं। सियाचिन पर नितिन गोखले की किताब Beyond NJ 9842: The SIACHEN Saga को पढ़कर आपके रोंगटे खड़े हो जाएंगे।

UN Peacekeeping: विश्व के शांति रक्षक के रूप में भारत की भूमिका

भारत की संयुक्त राष्ट्र शांति स्थापना में योगदान देने की एक लंबी और गहरी परंपरा रही है। भारत संयुक्त राष्ट्र सुरक्षा अभियानों में योगदान देने वाले देशों में सबसे आगे रहता है और अब भारत सेना की एक टुकड़ी साउथ सूडान जाने की तैयारी कर रहा है। भारत के ढाई लाख सैनिकों ने अबतक संयुक्त राष्ट्र के 71 मिशनों में से 51 मिशनों में अपना योगदान दिया है।
वर्तमान में, भारत से 5,000 से अधिक सैनिक हैं, जिन्हें संयुक्त राष्ट्र के शांति अभियानों में अलग-अलग जगहों पर तैनात किया गया है, जो सैन्य योगदान करने वाले देशों में तीसरा सबसे बड़ा योगदान है। डिफेंस मंत्रा के इस एपिसोड में भारतशक्ति के संस्थापक और प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले भारतीय सेना के अभूतपूर्व शांति अभियानों की विवेचना कर रहे है।

एलएसी पर तिब्बतीयों की तैनाती, क्या है चीन की चाल

चीन ने भारत के साथ वास्तविक नियंत्रण रेखा (LAC) पर अपनी सैन्य तैनाती को मजबूत करने के लिए तिब्बती युवाओं को भर्ती करना अनिवार्य कर दिया है। हाल में तकरीबन 100 युवाओं के एक टुकड़ी को चीन ने सिक्किम से सटे चुंभी घाटी में तैनात किया है। चीनी सेना भारत के सीमा पर स्पेशल ऑपरेशन चलाने के लिए तिब्बती युवाओं को लगातार प्रशिक्षित भी कर रहा है। सूत्रों की माने तो इन युवाओं की "लॉयल्टी टेस्ट" यानी उनकी वफादारी को जांच और परखने के बाद भर्ती की जा रही है। डिफेंस मंत्रा के इस एपिसोड में भारतशक्ति के संस्थापक और प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले चीन की इस नई चाल के पीछे की रणनीति और भारत पर पड़ने वाले असर का विश्लेषण कर रहें हैं ।

Eastern Ladakh Imbroglio: Emergency Procurement Powers for Armed Forces

The situation in Eastern Ladakh and the bellicosity of our Northern neighbour has led to the government approving the Emergency Procurement powers by the armed forces once again. These powers have been welcomed by both the forces and the defence industry, as was more than evident during the India Defence Conclave hosted by bharatshakti.in in October 2021.

However, are such powers really a long-term solution for our defence equipment procurement? Will these powers prove useful in terms of sustained capability building? Shouldn’t all contingencies be thought off earlier in the day, and requisite procurement is undertaken to ensure the security of our interests.

Guest: Lt Gen Sanjay Verma (Retd)

The General retired as the Director-General Weapons and Equipment, AHQ. Currently, he is a Consultant with DRDO. He is a Fellow of the Indian Institution of Engineers and is an Advisor/Subject Expert with the UPSC. He is also an Adjunct Faculty at IIT Delhi, visiting faculty at Rashtriya Raksha University.

यह असम के चाय उद्योग के लिए उथल-पुथल का एक दशक था जो 1987 में शुरू हुआ जब उग्रवादी समूह उल्फा ने अपना ध्यान फिरौती के लिए इस फलते-फूलते व्यापार पर केंद्रित किया । उग्रवादियों ने हत्या और अपहरण ऐसा दौर शुरू किया जिसके वजह से चाय उद्योग गंभीर संकट में घिर गया। कैसे उग्रवादियों द्वारा टैक्स और लगान लगाने से भय और निराशा का माहौल पैदा हो गया - जिसको भारतशक्ति के संस्थापक और प्रधान संपादक नितिन गोखले ने अपनी पहली किताब में इस प्रकार उकेरा है कि इसे पढ़कर आपके रोंगटे खड़े हो जाएंगे। गोखले इस एपिसोड में - "दी हॉट ब्रू"- The Hot Brew शीर्षक वाली किताब जिसका प्रकाशन दिसंबर 1997 हुआ था - में उन अशांत वर्षों का कारण क्या था और कैसे एक महीने से भी कम समय में किताब कैसे तैयार हो गया का जिक्र किया है। यह किताब अब मार्केट में उपलब्ध नहीं है लेकिन आपको निराश होने की जरूरत नहीं है आप इसे अब यहां पढ़ सकते हैं https://nitinagokhale.com.

Revisiting Assam Tea Industry’s Most Forgettable Decade

It was a decade of turbulence for Assam’s tea industry, which began in 1987 when the militant group ULFA turned its focus on what was then a flourishing trade.

In this episode of ‘Simply Nitin’, StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale dwells on his book that captures what led to those tumultuous years and how ‘The Hot Brew’ was ready in less than a month.

60 साल पहले: 'ऑपरेशन विजय', गोवा को पुर्तगाली शासन से मुक्ति

गोवा का भारत में विलय को 60 साल पूरे हो गए। हर साल 19 दिसंबर को गोवा मुक्ति दिवस 'ऑपरेशन विजय' में भारतीय फौज की जीत की याद दिलाता है। जिसने गोवा को पुर्तगाली शासन से मुक्त कराया था। 1961 में पुर्तगालियों के साथ राजनयिक प्रयासों की विफलता के बाद भारत सरकार द्वारा ऑपरेशन विजय चलाकर

19 दिसंबर को दमन और दीव तथा गोवा को भारत में विलय करा लिया था। 18 दिसंबर 1961 के दिन ऑपरेशन विजय की कार्रवाई की गई और महज 36 घंटे के अंदर पुर्तगाली सेना ने बिना किसी शर्त के भारतीय सेना के समक्ष 19 दिसंबर को आत्मसमर्पण किया। भारतशक्ति के साप्ताहिक कार्यक्रम डिफेंस मंत्रा के इस एपिसोड में इस रोचक सैन्य कार्रवाई की चर्चा नितिन गोखले कर रहें हैं।

भारत की संसद पर हमले के 20 साल बाद: क्या हम आज पलटवार करने के लिए तैयार हैं?

13 दिसंबर 2001 को संसद पर आतंकवादी हमले के मद्देनजर शुरू किया गया ऑपरेशन पराक्रम, 1971 के भारत-पाक युद्ध के बाद पहला पूर्ण पैमाने पर लामबंदी था। यह सुरक्षा के कैबिनेट कमेटी (सीसीएस) के फैसले के बाद 15 दिसंबर, 2001 को शुरू हुआ और 3 जनवरी, 2002 को पूरा हुआ। यह अंततः 16 अक्टूबर, 2002 को समाप्त हुआ जब सीसीएस ने मान्यता दी कि घटते रिटर्न का कानून पहले से ही लागू था। तीन "स्ट्राइक कॉर्प्स" (1, 2 और 21 कॉर्प्स) ने अपनी लामबंदी पूरी करने में लगभग तीन सप्ताह का समय लिया, और इस धीमी गति की लामबंदी, विशेषज्ञों को लगता है, ने अपनी बढ़त से समझौता किया। दोनों ने अपनी युद्ध मशीनों को खतरनाक स्तर तक बढ़ाया और कम से कम दो बार वास्तविक युद्ध के कगार पर पहुंच गए - परमाणु स्तर तक बढ़ने की एक स्वीकृत, संभावित क्षमता के साथ। हालांकि, संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका और अन्य पश्चिमी सरकारों ने चतुर कूटनीतिक युद्धाभ्यास के साथ कदम रखा, जिसके परिणामस्वरूप 12 जनवरी, 2002 को राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर प्रसारित भाषण में जनरल मुशर्रफ की प्रतिबद्धता का सामना करना पड़ा, कि पाकिस्तान "अपनी धरती से किसी भी आतंकवादी गतिविधि की अनुमति नहीं देगा"। इस्लामाबाद पर अधिक से अधिक अंतरराष्ट्रीय दबाव बनाने के लिए भारत के पर्याप्त लाभ की कमी को भी ऑपरेशन पराक्रम को बंद करने के एक कारण के रूप में उद्धृत किया गया है।तब से सेना की लामबंदी की रणनीति में बड़े बदलाव और सुधार किए गए हैं। सेना अपने कोल्ड स्टार्ट वॉरफाइटिंग सिद्धांत को परिष्कृत करती है जो परमाणु ओवरहैंग के तहत तेज संचालन में न्यूनतम समय में अधिकतम बल लगाता है। आज, भारत आखिरकार पाकिस्तान को उसके अपने सिक्के में वापस भुगतान करने के लिए तैयार है, और जिस भाषा में वह समझता है उस भाषा में बात करता है। यह 2016 में कायराना उरी हमले के बाद इसके जवाबी कार्रवाई में स्पष्ट हो गया।

भारतशक्ति के साप्ताहिक कार्यक्रम डिफेंस मंत्रा के इस एपिसोड में रक्षा विशेषज्ञ नितिन गोखले कुछ अहम सवाल का जवाब दे रहीं हैं।

Revisiting Operation Parakram: A War That Wasn’t

Two decades ago, a dastardly terrorist attack on India’s parliament by Pakistan-based terrorists led to a massive mobilization of troops on India’s western front. The threat of a war between two nuclear-armed countries alarmed world powers. Eventually, no war took place but the exercise—Operation Parakram—offered several lessons that India took note of and subsequently rejigged its military doctrine. In this episode of ‘News Warrior’, BharatShakti.in & StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale tells us how it began and what followed.

1971: कैसे भारत ने पाकिस्तान को पछाड़ा

पचास साल पहले इसी महीने, भारत ने पाकिस्तान को सिर्फ 13 दिनों तक चले युद्ध में हरा दिया और बांग्लादेश का निर्माण हुआ। पाकिस्तानी सेना द्वारा हत्या और अत्याचार की होड़ में चले जाने के बाद पूर्वी पाकिस्तान से शरणार्थियों की निरंतर धारा से भारत परेशान था। लेकिन भारत युद्ध शुरू नहीं करना चाहता था इसलिए उसने इंतजार किया। इस बीच, रिसर्च एंड एनालिसिस विंग ने पर्दे के पीछे से काम किया, पूर्वी पाकिस्तान में अवामी लीग के नेतृत्व के साथ मिलकर काम किया और एक आक्रामक की तैयारी की, लेकिन यह सुनिश्चित किया कि भारत हमलावर न हो। 'डिफेंस मंत्र' पॉडकास्ट के पहले एपिसोड में, रक्षा विश्लेषक नितिन ए. गोखले, नीलांजना बनर्जी के साथ बातचीत में बताते हैं कि भारत ने पाकिस्तान को कैसे पछाड़ दिया।

1971: How Pakistan Walked Into India’s Trap

This month half a century ago, India defeated Pakistan in a war that lasted just 13 days and led to the creation of Bangladesh. India was troubled by the steady stream of refugees from what was East Pakistan after the Pakistani army went on a killing and torturing spree. But India didn’t want to initiate the war so it waited. In the meantime, the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) worked behind the scenes, closely coordinating with the Awami League leadership in East Pakistan and preparing for an offensive yet making sure India was not the aggressor. In this episode of ‘News Warrior’, BharatShakti & StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale narrates how India outmanoeuvred Pakistan.

Reason To Worry As Xi Joins League Of Mao, Deng

Chinese President Xi Jinping has managed yet another endorsement from the Communist Party, one that puts him in league with Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping, the two leaders who ruled China for long.

Ordnance Reform: Biting The Bullet

AI in Multi Domain Battle-Space of Land, Sea, Air, Space and Cyberspace

Future wars will be fought in multiple domains to include land, sea, air, space and cyberspace. Due to the complexity of such a battle-space, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is going to play a predominant role in the conduct of warfare. AI will be incorporated in the Decision Support Systems to bring in greater efficiency and precision with data incorporation to achieve an optimised use of multiple sensor and weapon platforms. However, this incorporation of AI in critical autonomous systems like SSMs and SAMs has its own risks.

To be prepared to use AI tomorrow we need to capture a huge amount of data that emanates as we use our current systems today for future development, training and testing of AI. It’s an area that requires immediate focus to be prepared for the technology-driven battlefield scenario of tomorrow.

UAV Swarms Dodged top-end A D Systems to Inflict havoc in Saudi Arabian Oilfields

It is apparent that technology is impacting the way militaries fight, run their logistics and use the battle-space to overcome opposition, often far more numerically superior than the boots that they can muster. There are areas where the impact is already profound, and many more where these technologies could impose decisively profound results.

This paradigm shift calls for a strategy for our Defence Forces to imbibe these technologies and tailor our modernisation plans accordingly.

Insurgencies & India's Northeast

It's India's only region that has a dedicated ministry to look after its development needs. That's because the Northeast largely remained out of focus as policymakers at the Centre seemed out of sync with public aspirations and ground realities in the decades that followed India's Independence. That led to a sense of alienation, not all of it was perceived though, among the population. Pent-up frustration and anger gave rise to a spate of insurgencies, as Bharatshakti.in Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale describes in this episode of 'News Warrior'.
