The capacity-building component envisages greater emphasis on joint military exercises, training programmes and sharing of operational best practices.<\/p>\n<p>A major focus is on leveraging India\u2019s growing indigenous defence-industrial capability to expand exports and establish the country as a reliable global defence manufacturing hub. The framework seeks to promote Indian-made defence platforms and systems as an important instrument of defence diplomacy.<\/p>\n<p>Maritime security also figures prominently in the roadmap, with India seeking to strengthen its position as a \u2018Net Security Provider and First Responder in the Indian Ocean Region\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The Defence Ministry described defence diplomacy as a core pillar of India\u2019s foreign policy. It said the new framework would provide a clear and actionable vision for the next decade, with the objective of positioning India as an anchor of peace, stability and a rules-based order.<\/p>\n<p>The release of the document comes as India seeks to broaden and deepen its defence partnerships, while simultaneously expanding its domestic defence manufacturing base and footprint in global arms markets.<\/p>\n<p>Team BharatShakti<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"m-a-box-avatar-url\" href=\"https:\/\/bharatshakti.in\/author\/team-bharatshakti\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/signal-2026-06-04-142730-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"avatar avatar-150 photo\" alt=\"\"  \/><\/a>        <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Defence Minister Rajnath Singh unveiled &#8216;Raksha&#8217;, a 10-year strategic framework for India&#8217;s defence diplomacy Defence Minister Rajnath Singh&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8877,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[881,882,5210,14,284,5211],"class_list":["post-8876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-block-home-page","tag-bn","tag-defence-diplomacy-document","tag-defence-industry","tag-rajnath-singh","tag-raksha"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8876","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8876"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8876\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8877"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8876"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8876"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/defence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
