Manohar Parrikar reduces India’s war readiness from 40 to 10 days: Report
Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar has reportedly scaled down India’s war readiness from 40 days to 10 days of intense conflict under a new policy.
According to a report in The Free Press Journal, the new policy was cleared on December 30 with the assumption that the future conflicts would be short, swift and sudden.
Under the new policy, all the three armed forces have been asked to maintain the Minimum Accepted Risk Level (MARL) by stocking up weapons, ammunition and missiles and ensure all radars functional that should last a minimum of 10 days of intense conflict.
To improve slow procurements of arms and ammunition, the Vice-Chiefs of the three services have been given adequate fiscal powers to maintain this level of preparedness as the government does not want any chance for the military failing for want of any supplies.
To expedite defence purchases, the Indian Army’s Vice-Chief has been given the authority under this policy to spend up to Rs 200 crore for ammunition procurement, in consultation with the internal financial auditor.

Because it drains a lot of money to maintain 40 days of wwr, also the reserves never get used up.

After CAG Report, Sources Say Critical Ammo To Start Arriving In Weeks
NEW DELHI:
HIGHLIGHTS
- Critical ammo for tanks, artillery guns to start coming in from August
- Army woefully short on ammo, no remarkable change in last few years: CAG
- State-run Ordnance Factory Board supplies 90% of Army's ammo requirement
A day after the country's top auditor told parliament that the Army is significantly short on ammunition, sources have confirmed to NDTV that supplies of critical ammo for tanks and artillery guns will start flowing in from early next month. The Army by the end of next year will likely come close to meeting its requirement for 40 days of war wastage reserves of ammunition - the ideal stockpile the Army needs to fight 40 days of an intensive war - sources have said.
The world's second-largest standing army is woefully short on ammunition and there hasn't been a remarkable change in the last few years, the Comptroller and Auditor General told parliament on Friday. The shortage dents the Army's ability to sustain a war for a long period, the report said.
Reacting to the report, sources told NDTV that several types of ammunition and fuses which are in short supply are presently at the pre-dispatch inspection stage before they are exported to India by foreign suppliers.
Sources also said that the report does not account for 12,000 crores of orders that have been placed last year after the Uri terror attack on an Army base in Kashmir. The report also does not consider first and second line ammunition that is already deployed on the frontline or kept at the formation level to be supplied to troops on the frontline should it be required in the event of a conflict.
