| Summary, etc |
At Ninety-Five, PLA is on track to emerge as a modern military at par with the Western Armies by mid of the Century. As the ‘Army of the Party’, PLA is well represented in the nation’s governance structure. Communist leadership has accorded priority to the defence modernisation. However, after President Xi Jinping took over in 2012-13, he initiated path breaking defence reforms to transform PLA into a modern military, in keeping with China’s expanding global role. White papers and vision documents redefine the role of PLA in sync with nation’s strategic objectives. The doctrinal and structural changes aim to prepare the PLA to fight and win ‘limited wars under the conditions of Informatisation and Intelligentisation’. Double digit increase in the budgetary allocations to defence provide requisite monetary support towards modernisation of PLA. Significant accretion in China’s war waging potential has far reaching implications for the global polity, particularly for India given the disputed borders and divergent national interests. Hence, a holistic review of national security by our policy makers is no more an option but an urgent imperative. – Reproduced |
