Indian is not going to get a Common No.1 in the near future. Much like the politico-bureaucratic merge scuttled the suggestions for a primary of defense team (CDS) after the 1999 Kargil issue, the defense ministry has indicated significant bookings against the clean offer for a lasting chair of the chiefs of team board (CoSC).

The 14-member Naresh Chandra Taskforce on nationwide protection, in its review to PM Manmohan Singh in May last season, had suggested a lasting CoSC chair to work out "administrative control" over the atomic collection, go a individual combined unique causes management.

The long lasting CoSC chair, a four-star general like the Military, Fast and IAF chiefs who currently represent the board, was to also be an "invitee" to the Cupboard Committee on Security (CCS) and the National Security Authorities (NSC) as well as recommend the defense reverend on all issues concerning two or more Solutions.

But resources said the MoD, in its "recent comments" to the NSC Secretariat under the PMO, almost refused the development of a lasting CoSC chair publish as well as some other "critical reforms" much required to change the nation's greater defense management that were suggested by the Naresh Chandra Taskforce.Posted by viswa mandalapu.
