India’s geopolitical position, its neighboring factors, the country’s historical experience with its extensive and vulnerable land, air and maritime borders make it vulnerable from a security point of view. Certainly, the government has made partial efforts in this direction, such as establishment of National Security Agency, establishment of Indian National Security Council, establishment of Defense Planning Committee etc but all these bodies are working at their own levels. There is a need for such a policy and such a structure which will take all these together. Today the situation is such that it has become difficult to differentiate between external and internal security. The real threat to our security comes from covert operations activities.
