This article may be reproduced in whole or in part without permission. If it is reproduced, the Journal of Indo-Pacific Affairs requests a courtesy line. ith a shift in the balance of power in the Far East, as well as multiple chal- Wlenges in the wider international security environment, several nations in the Indo-Pacific region have undergone significant changes in their defense pos- tures. This is particularly the case with India, which has gone from a regional, largely Pakistan-focused, perspective to one involving global influence and power projection. This has presented ramifications for all the Indian armed services, but especially the Indian Air Force (IAF). Over the last decade, the IAF has been trans- forming itself from a principally army-support instrument to a broad spectrum air force, and this prompted a radical revision of Indian aipower doctrine in 2012. It is akin to Western airpower thought, but much of the latest doctrine is indigenous and demonstrates some unique conceptual work, not least in the way maritime air- power is used to protect Indian territories in the Indian Ocean and safeguard sea lines of communication. Because of this, it is starting to have traction in Anglo- American defense circles.1 The current Indian emphases on strategic reach and con- ventional deterrence have been prompted by other events as well, not least the 1999 Kargil conflict between India and Pakistan, which demonstrated that India lacked a balanced defense apparatus.

It is indeed a proud privilege and honour for me to participate in this 54th NDC meeting. This meeting has been convened essentially to consider and approve the Draft 11th Five Year Plan (2007-2012). The visionary and comprehensive Eleventh Five Year Plan envisions to steer the process of development through rapid reduction of poverty and creation of employment opportunities, access to essential services like health and education specially for the poor, equality of opportunity, empowerment through education and skill development to meet the objectives of inclusiveness and sustainability . However, I would like to share our views on some of the important issues and recommendations highlighted in the agenda. 2) Let me start with reiterating what our Hon’ble Prime Minister has stated in his Independence Day address on 15th August 2005. “ in this new phase of development, we are acutely aware that all regions of the country should develop at the same pace. It is unacceptable for us to see any region of the country left behind other regions in this quest for development. In every scheme of the Government, we will be making all efforts to ensure that backward regions are adequately taken care of.
