Summary
The growing interest of nations in the ocean-realm has become discernable in recent years, leading to an increased significance of maritime security. This is particularly relevant to India, whose vital stakes are expanding beyond its terrestrial confines. How has this increased the responsibility of Indian maritime forces? Can we expect these forces to satiate national-security interests beyond maritime affairs? What approach and capabilities are needed for this? As an attempt to answer these questions, this book is intended for a ‘wide-spectrum’ readership; ranging from a layman but a keen observer of national/ global events that affect him, and who seeks an association with India’s growing eminence; to the academics and Indian policy makers.
