The pronouncements by Government at the time of threats to nation, later transformed into foundations of present day Defence Policy. Interpretation and bottlenecks of the National Defence Policy of India, are analysed. Indian concept about national defence policy and security perception has never been clear. So, the factors shaping the it is attempted. The nature and determinants of defence policy are changing ever. Now, India desire a role in international security arrangements and she would not tolrate any third party intervention in her internal affairs. The independent foreign policy is hallmark of our decision making, that led the nation successfully through pre and post cold war. However, effective foreign policy demands strong economy and robust defence to succeed. At last but not least a holistic framework of defence policy is presented.
