JOSY JOSEPH
A HISTORY OF INDIA’S DEEP STATE
‘Maybe Indian politicians were smarter than their peers in (other) countries and realised that the military arm is capable of morphing
into a demon that can ultimately devour everything. It has been apolitical and tightly controlled, even as the rest of the security network has been manipulated over these decades to subvert the Constitution, target adversaries, create false narratives and suppress
dissent. [And] because the non-military security establishment is a multi-headed hydra that seems to operate without a unified
command, it is not often studied as an interconnected and complex system.’
