Warfare and Kautilya

Marut

Kautilya, War

Modern-Warfare

Kautilya has described four types of War

(a) Mantrayuddha or War by Counsel. This is the exercise of diplomacy to win wars. This is to be utilised when the king is in a weaker position and engaging in battle would not be wise or beneficial.
(b) Prakasayuddha or Open Warfare. This is the form of normal warfare fought by war rules.
(c ) Kutayuddha or Concealed Warfare. This form of warfare includes psychological warfare and treachery in the enemy’s camp. Also known as Guerrilla warfare.
(d) Gudayuddha or Clandestine / Silent War. This type of war is waged by covert means to achieve the objective. It includes means to win without fighting the battle by means such as assassinating the enemy. Also called silent war, it is a kind of warfare with another kingdom in which the king and his ministers—and unknowingly, the people—all act publicly as if they were at peace with the opposing kingdom, but all the while secret agents and spies are assassinating important leaders in the other kingdom, creating divisions among key ministers and classes, and spreading propaganda and disinformation.

  1. “Guda yuddha” , the easiest and most effective war is now raging unchecked against the Hindu Society in particular and India in general. ‘Gau Rakshaks’ , the foot Soldiers were effectively targeted first. We abandoned them without any opposition. RSS , Hindu organisations are the eternal targets of Pseudo Seculars and Commies. Award wapsi gang, INTOLERANCE gang , NGOs affected by the AADHAR SHACKLES are throwing their everything in ALL or NONE battle. Now the GANG OF FOUR’ has also been cooopted. UNLESS WE ATTACK THESE FELLOWS RELENTLESSLY and stand behind Modi , lest we lose our identity.
