Q31. “Internal security challenges in India are increasingly complex and multidimensional.” Examine.
India’s internal security challenges include terrorism, left-wing extremism, communal violence, cyber threats, and organised crime. These threats are interconnected and often influenced by external and internal factors.
Rapid urbanisation, technological misuse, and socio-economic inequalities add to the complexity. Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive and coordinated approach.
Thus, internal security today demands institutional coordination, intelligence sharing, and community engagement.
Q32. “Terrorism poses a serious threat to India’s internal security.” Discuss.
Terrorism undermines national security, economic stability, and social harmony. India has faced cross-border terrorism, home-grown radicalisation, and lone-wolf attacks.
Counter-terrorism requires robust intelligence, effective policing, and international cooperation. At the same time, respect for human rights is essential to maintain public trust.
A balanced strategy combining security measures and preventive initiatives is necessary to counter terrorism effectively.
Q33. “Left Wing Extremism is not merely a law and order problem.” Analyse.
Left Wing Extremism (LWE) has roots in socio-economic deprivation, lack of development, and governance deficits. Affected regions often face poverty, displacement, and limited access to basic services.
While security operations are important, long-term solutions require inclusive development, land reforms, and effective service delivery.
Therefore, addressing LWE requires a combined approach of security and development.
Q34. “Border management is crucial for ensuring internal security.” Examine.
India shares long and diverse borders with several countries, making border management a critical challenge. Issues such as illegal migration, smuggling, and infiltration directly affect internal security.
Effective border management involves modern surveillance, infrastructure development, and coordination among agencies. Local population cooperation also plays a vital role.
Strengthening border management enhances national security and internal stability.
Q35. “Cyber security has emerged as a major component of internal security.” Discuss.
With increasing digitisation, cyber threats such as data breaches, financial fraud, and cyber espionage have grown significantly. Critical infrastructure is particularly vulnerable.
Cyber security requires strong legal frameworks, technical capacity, and public awareness. International cooperation is also essential to counter cross-border cyber threats.
Thus, cyber security is now an integral part of India’s internal security architecture.
