India in its advance and ascent is confronted with inevitable resistance, its growing stature challenged in different realms and differently, at frontiers, inland, physical and virtual spheres.

India foiled an incursion on LAC at Galwan in 2020, silently suffered a sally besmirching its spirit at New Delhi in Jan 2021, is witness to brute violence at border State of Manipur since May 2023, viz confronted a serious security situation near every year. That India prevailed is significant, that it was surprised, and subject to disruption, is no less, and the critical aspect.

The recurrence of open dare to India, the surprise and successes of the nefarious ventures is the nettle to grasp. Is democracy a cause to a lack, is defence design of India a reflection of absolute term of its sovereignty, the meaning and import of sovereignty, the fine elements and composite plasm of democracy and defence, art and philosophy, is the nave of the book.
