History of Research And Analysis Wing (RAW)
Research And Analysis Wing (RAW) is an external intelligence agency that protects India from external security threats. The primary function of the RAW is collecting information about security threats to India from other countries, to guide Indian policy-makers to counteract terrorism and proliferation of weapons in India and it is also involved in the security of nuclear programs of India. The Intelligence Bureau of India is one of the oldest organizations in the world, this organization used to handle both internally telling everyone and external intelligence until 1968. They used to warn and protect India from all the internal and external threats. But after the 1962 border war with China, India officials decided to have a separate external agency because of the failure of the Intelligence bureau in supporting India during china border war. This failure initiated the officials to creates crucial step and that step is Research and Analysis Wing (raw).
Foundation of Research And Analysis Wing (RAW)
The failure of Intelligence Bureau as an external intelligence agency resulted in establishment of new External intelligence agency called as RAW in the year of 1968. When founded raw was led by Rameshwar Nath Kao until his retirement which was in the year of 1977. Many operations were handled by RAW under his Guidance. Many say the credits for initial success of RAW goes to him. The organization started with 250 people with a budget of 20 million. As of now the agent numbers are in 1000ds and the budget announced remains unofficial. RAW directly reports to Prime minister of India, whereas other countries secret agencies reports to defense ministers.
The Chief of raw will be appointed in Cabinet Secretariat, which is a part of Prime Minister Office. Reports say few RAW officers’ works in specialized departments such as research and Analysis department and few works in Police department.
Joining of Research And Analysis Wing (RAW)
Nobody can join RAW directly, there is nothing like selections for this service. They select candidates from other departments such as Armed Forces, Intelligence Agencies, Police Services, Administrative Services and the majority of the personnel are from the Intelligence Bureau. Raw is not only about spying other countries; there are many jobs departments in the RAW. Such as,Recruitment department: This department deals with selection of candidates of RAW from departments like Indian police services and other first grade services like Armed forces and intelligence bureau.
Department in Research And Analysis Wing (RAW)
- Field Officer jobs:This department people are the one who will spy on various countries to save India from threats.
- Analyst Level:This department deals with analyzing the secret data and all the profiles of agents.
- Experts in Various fields: Like Handwriting analyst, Computer hacker or any other expert in a field which contributes to RAW.
RAW agents are trained for all the situations in the academy. If they are assigned as a spy to any other countries then there complete Id in India will be destroyed. And at the same time new profile will be created on them in the respected countries, they are going as a spy. They have to live there with this new id and should serve for India as a normal citizen of that country. There won’t be any support from Indian government to them in those countries. So they live every second counting. If the other country officers finds out about the spy work then the agent will be tortured to maximum extent in their countries and finally death sentence will be given. This service will not give any name and fameto agents unlike military and police services.
If anyone gets popular with their service then we can assume either he is retired or sacrificed his life to India. This job is not permanent, according to few sources their salary will be around 80 thousand to 1.5 lakhs per month.
Research And Analysis Wing (RAW) and ISI (inter services Intelligence)
RAW was created at 1968 to protect India from external threats. Every country will have their own secret agency to protect them from the other countries. We all know about India and Pakistan Wars and missions, Like how India created RAW, Pakistan also created their own secret agency called ISI (inter services Intelligence) in the yearof 1948 that is two decades before then the creation of RAW. Their primary function is gathering, processing and analyzing the national security of Pakistan. When we compare this both agencies, they both play significant role in protecting their countries. Comparing them is actually bit difficult because of lack of information about both secret agencies. With the available information we can compare RAW and ISI in this Ways MAN power:• Collecting information depends on how effective the agents are and what technologyt got. • With a 4 times larger effective espionage manpower RAW can choose from a much larger pool of spies and hence can command a better efficiency Budget & technology.
Comparison of Research And Analysis Wing (RAW) and ISI (inter services Intelligence)
The budget for RAW agency is 55 Billion dollars but Pakistan ISI budget is only 7 billion dollars. This difference in the budget shows how India was capable of affording more than 15 satellites to effective surveillance, telephonic interception .etc. Whereas Pakistan ISI has zero Level of Secrecy: Since the agents of Raw are selected from the most high level defense services, the agents are more eligible and capable for their job. Because clearing the government exams in India for defense system is not easy task. The information Of Raw never reaches the media and the officials working in it are not suppose to share anything with their family or friends for their safety.
The headquarters of Raw still remains as amystery, that much protective the information is. Whereas few sources say the ISI information is more vulnerable and available in public domains itself. Overall the RAW works as an External intelligence agency of India to detect and analyze external threats. And to work internally India has Intelligence Bureau of India. But Pakistan ISI deals both Internal and External agencies and so the operations involve many hands in it which makes information more valunareble. There are many points that support both agencies,since the operations and their work remains as a secret it is difficult to finalize which agency is better. There are many fake news out about both the agencies. They all are doing their jobs to protect their countries and so Great respect towards them.
