It is the duty of the Defence Ministry and the forces to keep India safe.
I was Minister for the Armed Forces in the Ministry of Defence for two years prior to being appointed Defence Secretary.
In defence, 'Make in India' is happening in a big way, and it is not happening without orders coming from the ministry.
Our defence forces and their morale symbolise the prowess of the India of the 21st century.
Sacrifice is the 1.3 million active duty men and women in the U.S. military and 800,000 reserve forces who volunteer to keep us safe and defend our way of life.
If the Commander-in-Chief will look beyond the defence forces, he will discover that the real India is not military but peace-loving.
I am saying this with a certain sense of confidence and not arrogance. The defence ministry is being run without any middleman and in a transparent way. We have proved that defence procurement can happen without middlemen.
We dream of a day when India is completely self-reliant in defence production & exports defence equipment worldwide.
The spirit of sacrifice and selflessness of the defence forces is an inspiration for all Indians. Strong armed forces are necessary for an atmosphere of peace, amity, harmony and brotherhood in the country.
I like the concept of 'Make in India'. But the orientation of 'Make in India' is slightly different than what I would. So, the orientation of Make in India is big business, and a lot of it is defence. My orientation of 'Make in India' would be small and medium businesses.
The most important duty of government is to keep our people safe.
We will ensure that the important characters of what make 'Make in India' an important flagship programme for PM Modi is given full play for defence production. 'Make in India' needs to take over so we benefit from what is manufactured in India and finds an international market.
It is not whether an independent Scotland could go it alone and develop its own defence forces - of course it could - but what sort of forces would they be?
The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental , nor do they result from from ordinary hypocrisy: they are deliberate exercises in doublethink
Governments in countries across the world have a duty to do everything possible to keep the public safe from terrorist attacks.
I understand all the problems for the Ministry of Defence, of course I do; working within a budget and trying to do so many things is not easy.
What keeps India safe really is the heroism of millions of poor Indians who every day reject the allure of terrorism. What keeps India safe is just the courage of poor Indians, not the actions of its government.
