Synopsis

A small group of retired military officers from the Indian Armed Forces come together to contribute to the ongoing struggle of Veterans for honour and justice. It is virtually a rollercoaster ride for them as they respond to a series of sudden and unexpected developments. By re-strategizing and nimbly executing course-corrections, they bounce back after each challenging situation right up to a dramatic climax. 

The book is entirely a work of fiction, and should not be extrapolated therefore to the events, or to actual persons connected with the agitation of veterans at Jantar Mantar. 

The author served in the Indian Army for 31 years, and took voluntary retirement in 1997 in the rank of Brigadier General. He completed his PhD in Strategy and International Management in 2001 from the University of Texas at Dallas. Since then he has taught at the University of Texas at Dallas, Oakland University in Michigan, and Old Dominion University in Norfolk. 

My memoir, 'He Opens another Door' was published in 2013.

'Complex Interdependence'

Complex interdependence characterizes the 21st Century world wherein geopolitical, economic and national security dimensions are more intertwined than ever before in history.  The inordinate increase in terrorist strikes worldwide, and the establishment of an Islamic Caliphate that purportedly will transcend national boundaries, threaten the extant world order. Likewise, the increasing socio-economic divide and unrest within countries, along with religious polarization in countries with sizeable Muslim populations, also have international ramifications in today's interconnected world. Hence, the canvas of topics under discussion on this blog will be wide, notwithstanding its India-centric focus. This blog seeks to promote candid and meaningful exchange of views, but without getting unduly polemical and offensive, which unfortunately characterizes most public discourse these days.
