The insightful articles, inspiring narrations and analytical perspectives presented by the Editorial Team, establish an alluring connect with the reader. My compliments and best wishes to SP Guide Publications.
"Over the past 60 years, the growth of SP Guide Publications has mirrored the rising stature of Indian Navy. Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"
Since, its inception in 1964, SP Guide Publications has consistently demonstrated commitment to high-quality journalism in the aerospace and defence sectors, earning a well-deserved reputation as Asia's largest media house in this domain. I wish SP Guide Publications continued success in its pursuit of excellence.
The Indian Government signed Border Defence Cooperation Agreement (BDCA) with China on October 23, 2013. As per article VI of BDCA, the two sides agree that they shall not follow or tail patrols of the other side in areas where there is no common understanding of the Line of Actual Control in the Indo-China border areas.
Since signing of BDCA, Chinese troops have, on one occasion, violated the provision by tailing our patrol in Eastern Ladakh on June 2, 2014. A protest was lodged against this violation in the flag meeting held on July 15, 2014, according to the Defence Minister Arun Jaitley who gave this information in a written reply to Anand Rao Adsul and Dharmendra Yadav in the Lok Sabha recently.
