  • A CASE for CREATION of a JOINT TRAINING COMMAND (JTC) for the INDIAN DFENECE FORCES By
    A CASE FOR CREATION OF A JOINT TRAINING COMMAND (JTC) FOR THE INDIAN DFENECE FORCES By Air Cmde T Chand (Retd) Training philosophy, infrastructure and capacity created by the Indian Defence Forces over a period of time is considered one of the best in the world. Officers and other trainees from the defence forces of many countries are also trained every year and there is spare capacity in many institutions to expand this scope. Many improvements have taken place for service specific and joint training issues and the scope and extent of the later has widened to the extent possible. There is a duplication of certain type of training institutions which many suggest can be curtailed for cost cutting but there is another view point which suggests that the sheer numbers to be trained call for more than one training institutions. The academic model of having so many affiliated colleges to one university, most of which follow same curriculum to accommodate the large number of students is quoted in support of non integration of some of the training facilities of the respective services. There are those who believe that a kind of equilibrium has already been achieved and any further disruptions will adversely affect the high 2 training standards achieved by the institutions of individual services. There is also news that “Joint training command for Army, Navy and IAF is in the works, Nagpur the likely base and this development has put Army plan to shift ARTRAC from Shimla to Meerut on hold for now1”. HQs IDS has streamlined the setup for mentoring and controlling the tri service training institutions besides developing doctrines and concepts for the three services.

  • Battle of Hajipir (Indo-Pak War 1965)
    No. 08/2019 AN INDIAN ARMY PUBLICATION August 2019 BATTLE OF HAJIPIR (INDO-PAK WAR 1965) MAJOR RANJIT SINGH DAYAL, PVSM, MVC akistan’s forcible attempt to annex Kashmir was defeated when India, even though surprised by the Pakistani offensive, responded with extraordinary zeal and turned the tide in a war, Pakistan thought it would win. Assuming discontent in Kashmir with India, Pakistan sent infiltrators to precipitate Pinsurgency against India under ‘OPERATION GIBRALTAR’, followed by the plan to capture Akhnoor under ‘OPERATION GRAND SLAM’. The Indian reaction was swift and concluded with the epic capture of the strategic Haji Pir Pass, located at a height of 2637 meters on the formidable PirPanjal Range, that divided the Kashmir Valley from Jammu. A company of 1 PARA led by Major (later Lieutenant General) Ranjit Singh Dayal wrested control of Haji Pir Pass in Jammu & Kashmir, which was under the Pakistani occupation. The initial victory came after a 37- hour pitched battle by the stubbornly brave and resilient troops. Major Dayal and his company accompanied by an Artillery officer started at 1400 hours on 27 August. As they descended into the valley, they were subjected to fire from the Western shoulder of the pass. There were minor skirmishes with the enemy, withdrawing from Sank. Towards the evening, torrential rains covered the mountain with thick mist. This made movement and direction keeping difficult. The men were exhausted after being in the thick of battle for almost two days. But Major Dayal urged them to move on. On reaching the base of the pass, he decided to leave the track and climb straight up to surprise the enemy.

  • Realignment and Indian Air Power Doctrine
    Realignment and Indian Airpower Doctrine Challenges in an Evolving Strategic Context Dr. Christina Goulter Prof. Harsh Pant Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed or implied in the Journal are those of the authors and should not be construed as carrying the official sanction of the Department of Defense, Air Force, Air Education and Training Command, Air University, or other agencies or departments of the US government. 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.
