India's National Security Management & China
Institute For Topical Studies, Chennai, India
Supplied note: "The latest paper of the Institute For Topical Studies, A-2/3, Bharathi Dasan Colony, K.K.Nagar, Chennai---600078, India, (Tele.Fax.No. 44-4895235) on the above subject is now available at the Web site of the South Asia Analysis Group (SAAG), New Delhi, at [the URL below] - br."
["India continues to have serious concerns over the modernisation of China's Armed Forces, its nuclear and missile capability, its military assistance to Pakistan in the nuclear as well as conventional fields, its intentions in Myanmar, Bangladesh and Nepal etc. Despite these concerns, Indian attitude towards China seems to be more relaxed and more trusting than in the past. This is evident from the following: * The gradual erosion of our stay-behind intelligence collection and operational capabilities. * The almost exclusive focus of the Special Task Force on the revamping of the intelligence apparatus set up by the Government in 2000 on strengthening our capabilities vis-a-vis Pakistan without a similar exercise relating to China. - b.raman]
