When India's Army Was Ready for 'All Out War' With Pakistan & Then.. I Kashmir I Explosive New Book

In a week of fresh military casualties in a terror strike in Jammu- the sixth this year- the revelations in former Army Chief NC Vij's memoirs, 'Alone in the Ring' are even more important. The memoirs take us deep inside India's strategic responses to national security challenges. From the Kargil war, when the military was under orders not to cross the line of control to the Operation Parakram after the attack on Indian Parliament, when mass mobilization of troops made the army draw up a plan of "all out war' with Pakistan, only to never proceed; the books reveals how decisions are taken at the highest level.
Barkha Dutt speaks to
General NC Vij, Former Army Chief & Author 'Alone in The Ring"
Lt Gen Ata Hasnain, Former GoC, 15 Corps
Let Gen Raj Shukla, Former Army Commander

[@sunderasr]

NOT TO CROSS THE LOC WAS A STUPID,NEEDLESS RESTRICTIONS ON THE DEFENCE FORCES ,WHICH CAUSED UNNECESSARY INDIAN CASUALTIES

[@valvirchauhan6127]

Love you Barkha. You could only do justice to this discussion. Thank you. Salute to all Generals

[@mojostory]

thank you, regards, Barkha

[@LovelyDivingBoard-ch8oq]

Pakistan did not use air force they would have hit you hard

[@lovepeace7890]

Mismanaged - 570 dead and thousands injured. No accountability!

[@BasudevAcharia]

Excellent discussion revealing facts which mamy rather most Indians are not aware, these facts should be part of curriculum so that the current generation knows facts.

[@psk2266]

With Indian Govt's restraint, the operations had to be limited to the Kargil area... The Military had to obey the instructions of Govt. Otherwise, it was easy for Military to open up some other fronts eg. Jammu, Punjab, Rajasthan etc. So that, India would have got the bargaining point against Pakistan..

[@sunilkumarpokala846]

That was a great discussion as we all expect from Ms Barkha Dutt who had become a household name during Kargil war....The one question which was not asked but I hope is answer in the book is Army reluctance to settle the ' Sir Creek ' issue....

[@balaji9211]

It was one of the most outstanding podcasts you have hosted in the last few months.

[@mojostory]

thank you - barkha

[@padmajagajanan6583]

@@padmajagajanan6583 thank you so much, regards, Barkha

[@malashukla9292]

Admirably discussed, especially gen Shukla

[@LovelyDivingBoard-ch8oq]

Pakistan made a very bad miscalculation India used its air force

[@user-yo5dq3ow7k]

Military always has different plans to defend and attack incase of war. So there is no mistake in attacking

[@omnicurious2949]

Barkha blocked me from posting? My comments are getting deleted

[@HotelGoldenTree]

These conversations shows how confusing we Indians are when we face difficulty. Our leadership should be trained in leadership so that in future more assertive and proper action should be taken.

[@getevennow]

Because Wajpaie was a statesman like his counterpart

[@user-yo5dq3ow7k]

Pak had be allowed to attack wit regular or with terrorist. Why we are defencive? Pakistan isnot bigger military power.

[@user-yo5dq3ow7k]

Barkha is not looking comfortable when general shuklas talking

[@asbmbs5530]

Simple point is political leadership is incompetent.

[@VermaRajinder]

[@rafiquemohammad294]

Just Waistage of Time , Useless Propaganda

[@VermaRajinder]

[@LothaNL]

Don't lie. Those insurgents groups are Indian tribals from POK region. They just happened to be muslims. Winning war against few tribals and boasting around. Did they have sufficient weapons? 😂

[@AbhimanyuMS-m1x]

This is what happens when you don't get a proper formal education.

[@sahasrangshuchanda7214]

Without education how did you wrote those words.Dont lie some friend from India must have typed it for you .😂😂😂😂😂

[@vedulanar]

Madam Barkha's best friend was and is IMRAN kHAN. Madam Barkha's most favoured nation is PAKISTAN. She learnt a little English and she reports in favour of those whoever pay for it.

[@AAA-ul8rq]
