Re: Strategic guru K Subrahmanyam passes away
Wish this Jambavan were like the man of ancient lore, a chiranjeevi. I hope his ideas endure for ever.
Re: Strategic guru K Subrahmanyam passes away
Like all greats he can not be replaced. I remember his simple explanation on how war will come is something like below. not exact reproduction -
When the other person is weak and you are strong - You will have Peace,
When you and the others are equieal - You will have tension.
When the others are strong and you are weak the - You will have WAR.
I am sure many of gurus heard and read what this man said and written. Please provide links etc so that we kids can learn some thing.

R.I.P sir, and come back soon.
I remember reading his weekly column in ToI 20-25 years ago, and this really shaped my ideology. He is no more, but the thousands of jingoes that he created, march on.

Re: Strategic guru K Subrahmanyam passes away
A deep loss indeed. One of the finest strategic thinkers in the post-independence India, and the loss will certainly be felt. He was apolitical, and had the respect of the entire spectrum of the strategic community. He declined Padma Bhushan in 1999. Such was the greatness of this man.
RIP sir! You will be sorely missed!
