Hardcover. Zustand: New. Whereas India and West Pakistan won their freedom from the British in 1947, East Pakistan got new colonial masters. So the story has to begin, as has been done in this book for the first time, from the personalities who created Pakistan, the military coups and assassinations that led to political instability, the ruling cliques that jostled for power and pelf, and the misdeeds which created fault-lines between the two wings of Pakistan. This was the backdrop to the genocide carried out by Pakistan's army, which initially led to the resistance of East Pakistani troops and eventually necessitated India's training and equipping of Mukti Bahini and joint operations with India's armed forces. At the same time, dramatic events were also taking place on the world stage, in New York at the UN, in Washington, Dhaka and Islamabad which make for riveting reading. These developments had repercussions on international relations that were felt for decades, such as the unnatural axis between Washington, Beijing and Islamabad and the enduring ties between India and Bangladesh. Brig R P Singh, who was then a Captain in the Indian Army, was associated with the Bangladesh liberation struggle from start to the end. The book is a valuable addition to the literature on geopolitics as well as the subcontinent's military history. The author provides an insightful, first-hand account of the challenges faced by the war-torn newly independent nation.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. Book Defence Cooperation is the pinnacle of Strategic Relationship between any two countries. Synergy between economic, diplomatic, and military cooperation is required to achieve national objectives. Indian Armed Forces are amongst the largest in the world and recognised professionally with well-established institutions. It is, therefore, only prudent that we use them to our advantage even during peace time. While India has undertaken Defence Cooperation in the South Asian Region for many years, it may fall short of a well-coordinated effort. The challenges associated with Defence Cooperation by India in South Asia need an appraisal. An important aspect that is required to be analysed is as to what should be the optimum policy of India for Defence Cooperation in South Asia. This book provides a holistic approach towards identifying and analysing our approach towards Defence Cooperation with respect to South Asian nations. It explores the rationale and need for India to engage South Asian Countries for Defence Cooperation. Thereafter it goes on to identify the perceived shortcomings of our methodology of Defence Cooperation in the Region. Based on above it goes further and explores and evolves a policy for engaging with South Asian Countries for Defence Cooperation as also works out macro level mechanisms and structures in the Government and the Service Headquarters for pragmatic defence cooperation. The book is a wholesome and interesting treatise which is engrossing, incisive and offers useful recommendations which could be adopted towards wholesome defence cooperation in the South Asian Region. Author Brigadier Mandeep Singh (Retd) was commissioned into the Indian Army in 1981. He has held several important command and staff appointments during his military service including instructional assignments in the prestigious Army War College. He has also had a stint as an instructor in a foreign War College.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. The historical crossroads which saw India s transition from British Imperial rule to Independence and a democracy, coincided with the fascinating life of Maharaja Jagatjit Singh, the last Ruler of the erstwhile Princely State of Kapurthala (1872 1949). He was witness to some of the most epochal events, both within India and across the global stage during his distinguished reign, which spanned almost 60 years. Maharaja Jagatjit Singh was held in universal esteem and still commands respect as one of the best-known and most legendary of the ruling Indian princes of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Prince, Patron and Patriarch explores the many hues and dimensions of his life, character, and achievements, encapsulated as a renowned traveller, an erudite Ruler, a Francophile, and a benevolent patriarch, devoted to his family and his constituents. This book recreates his abundant life and gracious world by surveying the aesthetics and geo-political events of Kapurthala State under his patronage. The monograph of this extraordinary life and dynamic personality is presented with components of a family album, historic journal, along with a design diary owing to the Maharaja s renown as an aficionado of architecture. It also bears elements of a personal memoir, owed largely to the insights shared by Brigadier Sukhjit Singh, who vividly reminisces about his illustrious Grandfather. (jacket).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In October 1950, within days of the establishment of the People's Republic of China, Mao achieved an exceptional feat that no ruler of Dynastic China had ever accomplished before - the annexation of Tibet. The achievement was unique in that Tibet, with a territorial expanse four and a half times the size of France, a cultural heritage as old as that of any ancient civilization of the world, and seat of one of largest religions of the world, was forcibly occupied without any intervention by nations who claimed to be champions of liberty, freedom, human rights, and equality. Amazingly, the nation whose national security was directly affected by the act, not only remained oblivious, but played an active role in the demise of Tibet. It was a tragedy that was to torment India forever. This book offers a stirring account of the secret history of Tibet from its earliest settlement, its Golden Age, its heroes, its wars, its politics and intrigues, its transition into one of the most peaceful and spiritual nations in the world and finally, the death blow to its independence.The transmission of Buddhism, mainly by Indian Buddhist intellectuals in Tibet, resulted in converting Tibetan warriors, who by their valour and grit established one of the largest empires in Central Asia, into pacifists. The tragedy was waiting to occur.
