Towards that end, the VIF has been engaged in consistent dissection of the phenomenon of terrorism and undertaken to propagate measures that are necessary to protect the societal peace and stability against the lure of terrorism.

UNCLOS: Solutions for Managing the Maritime Global Commons
0With increased economic activities and shifting of global power axis, the 21st century will witness greater human interface with the oceans. While global powers may contest to dominate the waters essential for trade and sustenance, the emerging powers and rising economies will be aspiring for freedom of navigation to bolster their trade and economic independence. Consequently, there is potential for conflict and therefore greater need for laws and norms to govern the activities in the high seas. However, often the powerful nations do not completely abide by the idea of a rules based international order, especially, when it is against their perceived national interests. The contestation in South China Sea is a clear manifestation of this trend.

VISION SAGAR: Indian Air Force in the Indian Ocean
0The Indian Ocean and India have prodigious relationship. After all, this great Ocean is named after India (Oceanus Orientalis Indicus). Long before seafaring developed in the limited Aegean waters, oceanic navigation had become common with the coastal people of peninsular India. And ages before Columbus sailed across the Atlantic, the Indian Ocean had become an active thoroughfare of commercial and cultural traffic connecting India to many countries of the present-day Indian Ocean Region(IOR). -

Land Warfare
0The book deals with future of land warfare on the Indian subcontinent. To predict about the future is extremely difficult particularly in the field of Warfare. This is due to the fact; wars are impacted by doctrine, technology and people. Further the introduction of nuclear weapons has made war less frequent and reduced the duration. There are trends which keep changing with the passage of time. Conflicts in the 21st century are short and swift with a combination of effects. Further aspirations of leaders often point towards different military objectives. In such a scenario we could plan at best for a decade and maybe visualise for about 15 years.

China Bloodies Bulletless Borders
5After the shock of upping the ante against the Indian Army in Sikkim in 1967 and losing short of 400 soldiers over some skirmishes, the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) pressed for resolving all territorial disputes by discussion/dialogue only and not by using force or firearms against each other.This book describes with details and analysis the problematic process of bullet-less border management by the Indian Army against the PLA, politically indoctrinated by the megalomanic, hegemonic and devious Communist Party of China.It is a saga of over half a century of the PLA’s intrusions/transgressions on an almost daily basis across a very long disputed border without it deciding/declaring claim lines and constantly shifting the goalposts. In 2020, during the corona pandemic, it committed a second aggression injuring over a hundred and killing 20 Indian Army personnel with medieval barbaric weapons and thereby breaking every Sino-Indian peace agreement.
