Indian National Defence University Bill, 2015 proposes to establish a world class fully autonomous institution of National Importance under Ministry of Defence. University will develop and propagate higher education (PhD, M Phil, M Tech and M Sc) in National Security Studies, Defence Management and Defence Technology and promote policy oriented research on all aspects relating to national security, both internal and external. It would also encourage awareness of national security issues by reaching out to scholars and an audience beyond the official machinery. It will also serve as a think tank contributing to policy formulation and debates on security and strategy. INDU will inculcate and promote coordination and interaction not just between the three Armed Services but also between other agencies of the Government, the Civil Bureaucracy, Para Military Forces, Central Armed Police Forces, Intelligence Services, Diplomats, Academicians, Strategic Planners, University Students and officers from Friendly Foreign Countries. It would create synergy between the academic community and Govt functionaries. It would make available opportunities for higher studies through distance learning to interested military personnel.

Initially, four new colleges / institutions, namely School of National Security Studies, School of Defence Technology, School of Defence Management and Centre for Distance and Open Learning are proposed to be set up at main campus at Binola, Gurgaon. The four existing Defence Institutions namely National Defence College (NDC), New Delhi, College of Defence Management (CDM), Secunderabad, Defence Services Staff College (DSSC), Wellington and National Defence Academy (NDA), Khadakwasla, Pune are proposed to be brought under the ambit of INDU without diluting their powers or autonomy for award of degrees and diplomas.

The last date for sharing inputs on Draft Indian National Defense University Bill, 2015 is 21st August, 2016.

This is a wonderful thought and should become reality. Youth planning to aspire for Defence Services can enroll directly into this university and study about specific subjects, qualify and get into India Defence Services. Presently youth willing to go for defence services has to get traditional education i.e Graduation and if he/she joins defence service, he/she needs moulding training as per defence. Also, sheep race for getting educated from formal universities will have less rush.

Great. This will enable us to do advanced strategic planning, defense and war planning on the table more efficiently by research scholars who may not be on fields. And also I suggest this university should be for all (not only for Defense Officer for higher studies), like civilians who can utilize his talent in defense labs (planning and technical etc.) and want to make career in defense studies.

The concept of a national defence university is a very good one.I have personally tried to present my ideas on indigenisation, new defence doctrines etc with several defence 'think tanks'. Somehow their agenda seems to be different and they are not prepared to listen. A univ of this nature can encourage freethinking and contribution from people who are not necessarily well connected with powers that be.

This is the need of the hour. My suggestion is that we should look for global sceario in selection of the faculty without compromise.
Secondly, Management and marketing of defence equipment should also be given top priority along with pure academics in this university..For example, PDPU, Gandhinagar created by GERMI has SPT (School of Petroelum Technology) and also SPM (School of Petroleum Management) and doing very well. The University presently NO.1 in Gujarat.

This is a good initiative and it is long due. My inputs:
1. The 4 existing Defence institutions should remain autonomous, this is extremely important. These are great institutions and they have produced and will keep on producing the cream of the armed forces.
2. Having the 4 new institutes so close together doesn't seem to be a very good idea. They should be spread across the country.
3. The teachers/professors should be the best we can get.
4. It should cater to the armed forces mainly.
