Description:All of India’s war’s – against military, political and international backdrops – are the compass of this book, with an accent on the naval maneouvres, many hitherto less known. In covering the major and 1965 and 1971 wars, the author brings out operational frustrations in conducting military operations, when fought ‘sans strategy or local intelligence’. By contrast, there are insights into success factors arising from detailed and superb planning, as in the Liberation of Goa 1961 bequeathed by the British, and the 1971 Bangladesh War by Gen Sam Manekshaw as a CDS and able and gutsy Naval Chief Admiral SM Nanda and a calculating brain Air Chief Marshal P C Lal, depicting the need for the highest command structure to coordinate the three forces, and an effective overseeing strategic security agency. This is currently deficient.The readers will encounter a gamut of characters in uniform – including – gung-ho chiefs – and war situations that would give a Forsyth or Clancy exciting plot material. There are with the historical narratives, stories of professional and personal glory – ambitious moves and astute machinations, insinuations, bravado and folly, as brave commanders and political masters – local and superpower – plot their balance of power stances and fighting moves between belligerent neighbors, within this vast South East Asian geographical arena.As Director of Naval Operations (DNO) during the Iran-Iraq war (1980-81) when oil from the Gulf was India’s life line, and later Director Intelligence (DNI) who interacted with the movers and shakers in the South Block ( MOD, MEA, PMO, Army Ops Room and as War Room Boss) and North Blocks ( Intelligence), the Khalistani uprising, Op Pawan and Op Brasstacks, when India nearly came to war with Pakistan ( a ka Brig Zahir UL Abassi of a Coup fame in Pakistan later), and Op Chequerboard and Somdrung Chu by Gen K Sundarji that rattled the Chinese, the author provides lucid commentary and a ring side view. The book from unclassified sources and research is made concise in 240 gripping readable pages from hours of inquiring in India, USA, Oxford, Singapore and Pakistan and includes;A Salute To Admiral S M Nanda-The Bomber of Karachi and thanks for his help.*Introduction by General V P Malik former COAS who battled the Kargil war “With What We Had” in heights above 16000 feet in 1999 when Pakistan was nuclear, and India’s Air Force failed to co-operate in Kargil early days.
