Information on Operation Blue Star
India - Researched and compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on Wednesday 15 & Thursday 16 March 2017 Information on operation Blue Star In June 2015 the India Times notes: “India's most 'infamous' incident Operation Blue Star was a military operation that was ordered by then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1984, to eliminate Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and other Sikh militants who were amassing weapons in the Harmandir Sahib Complex (the Golden Temple) in Amritsar. Bhindranwale's plan was to take control over The Golden Temple” (India Times (5 June 2015) 31 Years Later, Here's How Operation Blue Star Changed The History Of India!). A report released in June 2014 by the Daily Telegraph states: “At about 7.30 on the morning of June 6 1984, Operation Blue Star, one of the most extraordinary battles in military history, came to a head when Indian army tanks pounded the Sikh shrine, the Akal Takht, with 105mm high-explosive squash head shells. It stands opposite the centre of the Sikhs’ religion, the Golden Temple in Amritsar. The complex housing the two had been occupied and fortified by a fundamentalist Sikh preacher, Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, who was demanding the establishment of Khalistan, a Sikh homeland. The assault was the climax of a nine-hour, gruelling battle between the Indian army and Bhindranwale with his heavily armed and well-trained followers. Sikhs in India, and in the West, were outraged by what they saw as the defilement of their holiest place. And that anger remains 30 years later, as I have found in making a documentary for the BBC World Service on the divisive legacy of Operation Blue Star” (Daily Telegraph (6 June 2014) Operation Blue Star: How an Indian army raid on the Golden Temple ended in disaster). -

Salient Issues Affecting Defence Manpower in India
Focus Salient Issues Affecting Defence Manpower in India Gurmeet Kanwal* Manpower costs are increasingly becoming unmanageable and are driving national security planners towards thinking creatively about what used to be called ‘affordable defence’. Despite leap-frogging from third to fourth generation weapons technologies in the short span of about two decades, modern armed forces are still far from being able to effect substantive reductions in manpower by substituting fighting personnel with innovative technologies while ensuring operational effectiveness. In fact, more often than not, technological solutions are proving to be costlier than the present arrangements for security. It may be quite a long wait to see which way the technology cookie crumbles. In India’s case, because of the Army’s extensive commitments in border management and manpower-intensive internal security duties, it is unable to undertake major reduction in its manpower. Direct personnel costs amount to almost 50 per cent of the Army’s revenue budget and indirect costs add further to the burden. As the defence budget is unlikely to increase beyond 2.5 per cent of the GDP, the Army’s modernisation plans have fallen way behind the required qualitative levels. It argues that there is a need to seek innovative and creative solutions to reduce the costs of manpower even if the manpower itself cannot be reduced in large numbers at present. India’s Strategic Environment India’s regional security environment is marked by Afghanistan’s endless civil war despite US-led North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) intervention and the overthrow of the despotic Taliban regime and its tense relations with Iran and the Central Asian Republics (CARs). -

Christopher ABSTRACT With the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center buildings, the intersection of religious ideals in war has been at the forefront of the American discussion on war and conflict. The New York attacks were followed by the U.S. invasions of Afghanistan in October of 2001 in an attempt to destroy the religious government of the Taliban and capture the Islamic terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, and then followed by the 2003 invasion of Iraq, both in an attempt to fight terrorism and religious extremism. -

Who Does The Dying? ‘Martial Races’ and War Time Unit Deployment in the Indian Army Ammon Frederick Harteis Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori Frederick Harteis 1 Abstract During the Second World War, the Indian Army held back units and soldiers that were not from the so-called “martial races” from frontline combat service. The British “martial races” theory held that only a small number of communities in India were fit for military service and people from all “non-martial” communities should be excluded from the Army. Has the Indian Army, after gaining independence from British leadership, contended the Second World War practice of deploying “martial” units in combat while assigning “non-martial” units to non- combat roles? It has been conclusively demonstrated that “martial race” groups have contended to be overrepresented in the post-colonial Indian Army.
