As India rises in the international system, its foreign and defense
policies are attaining greater influence in shaping global
security. This Letort Paper explores Indian nuclear policy
approaches and views, and makes a major contribution to our
understanding of this factor of growing significance in Asian
security. India's nuclear arsenal development is generating new
technical options for its nuclear strategy. India is developing
intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)-range Agni-V and Agni-VI
ballistic missiles, and is claiming that these will be able to host
multiple nuclear warheads. It is also building a new generation of
short-range and potentially nuclear-capable ballistic missiles, and
fielding an indigenous naval nuclear force. However, as these
advancements interact with those of India's strategic rivals, China
and Pakistan, they threaten to blur nuclear thresholds and elevate
the risk of inadvertent nuclear escalation due to misperception.
