No need to dignify HBR, says NSA

National Security Advisor Shivashankar Menon on Wednesday said there was no need to "dignify" the Henderson Brooks report on India-China war in 1962 as it was not critical to current national security. It was an operational report prepared by two officers for the Chief of Army Staff at his request and they gave the report on what had happened at that point of time, Menon said while interacting with the audience after a lecture on 'India's Security Environment' here. The lecture was organised by the Kerala State Planning Board.
