Low intensity conflicts in India : an analysis
"Low Intensity Conflicts in India: An Analysis" by Vivek Chadha offers a comprehensive examination of India's internal conflicts from 1947 to the present. The book delves into various insurgencies, including those in Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir, the North-East, and the Naxalite movements. Chadha identifies common factors influencing these conflicts, such as political opportunism, neglect, corruption, and social issues, and discusses how these elements have exacerbated tensions. He also highlights the transformation of certain insurgent groups from movements seeking autonomy to entities engaged in criminal activities, thereby undermining democratic processes. The work is noted for its scholarly rigor and precision, making it a valuable resource for military personnel, policymakers, and students of strategic studies
