  • Defence Diplomacy Between India and Myanmar: State of Play Dr
    ISPSW Strategy Series: Focus on Defense and International Security Issue Defence Diplomacy between India and Myanmar: State of Play No. 600 Dr Bibhu Prasad Routray Feb 2019 Defence Diplomacy between India and Myanmar: State of Play Dr Bibhu Prasad Routray February 2019 Abstract New Delhi’s strategic objectives in Myanmar remain important, yet ambigous. Firstly, the country is a lynchpin for India’s Act East policy. Secondly, it is a theatre where New Delhi is seeking to challenge the decades-old dominance of Beijing. And thirdly, Myanmar holds key to ending the remnants of the insurgencies in India’s northeast. To fulfil these objectives, New Delhi intends to boost the bilateral defence ties. While India’s Act East policy is a work in progress and the insurgents from North East India have not been dislodged from Myanmar’s territory, the ties between the defence forces of both countries have demonstrated signs of strengthening. For fulfilment of strategic objectives, however, there is a need to go beyond rhetoric and work on deliverables. About ISPSW The Institute for Strategic, Political, Security and Economic Consultancy (ISPSW) is a private institute for research and consultancy. The ISPSW is an objective, task-oriented and politically non-partisan institute. In the increasingly complex international environment of globalized economic processes and worldwide political, ecological, social and cultural change, which occasions both major opportunities and risks, decision- makers in the economic and political arena depend more than ever before on the advice of highly qualified experts. ISPSW offers a range of services, including strategic analyses, security consultancy, executive coaching and intercultural competency.

  • Outrageous Comment of Indian Army Chief Regarding Bangladesh: Hasina Regime Proved Its Despicable Loyalty by Maintaining Absolute Silence
    Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir, Wilayah Bangladesh Ref : 1439-06/01 Monday, 10th Jumada II 1439 AH 26/02/2018 CE Press Release Outrageous Comment of Indian Army Chief regarding Bangladesh: Hasina Regime proved its Despicable Loyalty by Maintaining Absolute Silence On February 22, 2018, Indian Chief of Army Staff General Bipin Rawat has claimed at a seminar that a planned influx of illegal migrants from Bangladesh into India's north-eastern region is underway as part of Pakistan’s “proxy war” against India, with support from China, according to a report by The Times of India (February 22, 2018). Even though the statement, which has been covered by all the major newspapers in both India and Bangladesh, has provoked huge reaction in political arena, but, with utter disgust, we observed that Hasina government has remained in complete silence, demonstrating its unbending loyalty to the archenemy of the Muslims and Bangladesh. Even the appalling statement of Rawat that Bangladesh is being used for proxy warfare of Pakistan, did not offend the professed “chetona” (spirit of liberation war) of the current regime that it keeps bragging about! O Muslims of Bangladesh! This is clear beyond the shadow of a doubt that this ruling class will spare no effort to bring on us unending humiliation and disgrace at India’s behest. India, no matter how big a bully in this block, did not possess an iota of courage to mess around with the incredibly brave Bangladesh Army even a few years back. This land of shirk had a hard time to forget their nightmarish experience of defeat by our paramilitary force Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) in Padua and Rowmari across the border in 2001.
