I am pleased to learn that the SP Guide Publications will complete fifty years in 2014. In These five decades the SP Guide Publications have emerged as an useful repository of information, views and perspectives on matters related to the Armed Forces of India, including contemporary issues of technology, procurement, defence industry, etc. The SP Guide Publications thus provides relevant and substantive inputs to all those interested in security matters.

I wish the publications continued success in their efforts.

Shano Varuna.
