Some said innovative……. Some were dumbfounded by its audacity……… some were skeptical………….. Some said unrealistic …………. But today India is just steps away from having a battle ready doctrine by end of 2011

On April 28, 2004 the world stood on its feet and gasped when Chief of Army Staff of the Indian Army General Nirmal Chander Vij unveiled India’s new war doctrine.

India is one of the few countries that never invaded any county in the last 1000 years. The region which extended from Kandahar to Cambodia and Kashmir to Kanyakumari under Chandragupta Mourya was the largest territory that Akhand Bharat ever had under its control, but today we were only able to save 1/3 of it. The basic psyche of the later Indian rulers was that the army was only for defense but not for offense.  We even had the misfortune of having a prime minister who thought that India never needed an Army

Before going further into the concept of cold start doctrine, we have to understand the circumstances that influenced the origin of this offensive war doctrine

[size=12pt][u][b]Operation Brasstacks[/b][/u][/size]

In 1987 the then CoAS of Indian Army General Krishnaswamy Sundarji initiated Operation Brasstacks  in November 1986 to simulate a full-scale war on the western border. The exercise was the largest ever conducted in India and comprised nine infantry, three mechanized, three armored and one air assault division, and included three armored brigades. Amphibious assault exercises were also conducted with the Indian Navy. Brasstacks also allegedly incorporated nuclear attack drills

It is been said that the main intention of the operation was to simulate a war scenario where Indian armed forces can decisively strike deep inside Pakistan and if possible to divide it into two. For this General Sundarji wanted to utilize India’s 3 strike corps (I Corps in Mathura, II Corps in Ambala, and XXI Corps in Bhopal). This has been called as Sundarji’s doctrine, the very first offensive doctrine in the History of modern India. There is still a considerable debate regarding the purpose of the exercise as many believe that India was preparing for a war against Pakistan

[size=12pt][u][b]Operation Parakram[/b][/u][/size]

After the 13 December 2001 attack on the Indian Parliament, Operation Parakram was launched in which tens of thousands of Indian troops were deployed along the Indo-Pakistan border. India blamed Pakistan for backing the attack. The operation was the largest military exercise carried out by any Asian country. Its prime objective is still unclear but appears to have been to prepare the army for any future nuclear conflict with Pakistan, which seemed increasingly possible after the December attack on the Indian parliament.

Even though the Indian leaders boasted that the operation was a success. Unfortunately for India’s efforts, the decisiveness of its message was undercut by the inability of the Indian Army to present a timely threat to Pakistan. From the time the mobilization order was given, the armored columns of the strike corps took nearly three weeks to make their way to the international border area. In this intervening period, the Pakistan Army was able to  counter mobilize on the border, and more important, Western powers became increasingly concerned by the extent of India’s military mobilization.



[size=14pt][u][b]Cold start[/b][/u][/size]

The Indian Army’s postmortem analyses of Operation Parakram sought to understand why India had been unable to achieve significant political aims through its military deployment. Part of the blame fell to the Indian political leadership, which failed to define any strategic objectives for the mobilization, making it impossible to define victory or defeat for the operation. Defense analysts, however, pointed to the long delay between the mobilization order and the actual deployment of the strike corps as a key window that allowed Pakistan to appeal to its allies, particularly the United States, to intervene before India could bring military force to bear. It has also been argued that the delay created enough of a gap between mobilization and commencement of military operations for India’s political leadership to lose its nerve

The goal of this limited war doctrine is to establish the capacity to launch a retaliatory conventional strike against Pakistan that would inflict significant harm on the Pakistan Army before the international community could intercede, and at the same time, pursue narrow enough aims to deny Islamabad a justification to escalate the clash to the nuclear level.

This doctrine requires reorganizing the Indian Army’s offensive power away from the three large strike corps into eight smaller division-sized “integrated battle groups” (IBGs) that combine mechanized infantry, artillery, and armor. As one retired Indian general described, India is seeking to “mass firepower rather than forces.” At the same time, the holding corps (redesignated “pivot corps”), which would be bolstered by additional armor and artillery, would concurrently man defensive positions and undertake limited offensive operations as necessary.

Rather than seek to deliver a catastrophic blow to Pakistan (i.e., cutting the country in two), the goal of Indian military operations would be to make shallow territorial gains, 50–80 kilometers deep, that could be used in post conflict negotiations to extract concessions from Islamabad. Although the operational details of Cold Start remain classified, it appears that the goal would be to have three to five IBGs entering Pakistani territory within seventy-two to ninety-six hours from the time the order to mobilize is issued.26 As one Indian analyst argues, “[The IBGs] should be launching their break-in operations and crossing the ‘start line’ even as the holding (defensive) divisions are completing their deployment on the forward obstacles. Only such simultaneity of operations will unhinge the enemy, break his cohesion, and paralyze him into making mistakes from which he will not be able to recover.”

The perceived advantages of the Cold Start doctrine over its predecessor are fivefold.
1) Forward -deployed division-sized units can be alerted faster and mobilized more quickly than larger formations.
2) Even though division-sized formations can “bite and hold” territory, they lack the power to deliver a knockout blow
3) Multiple divisions, operating independently, have the potential to disrupt or incapacitate the Pakistani leadership’s decision making cycle
4) Having eight (rather than three) units capable of offensive action significantly increases the challenge for Pakistani intelligence’s limited reconnaissance assets to monitor the status of all the IBGs, improving the chance of achieving surprise
5) If Pakistan were to use nuclear weapons against Indian forces, divisions would present a significantly smaller target than would corps
