Former RAW Chief reflects on India’s secret service and its failings

India’s spies and spymasters do not usually write their memoirs. AS Dulat headed the Intelligence Bureau in Kashmir in 1988-90 when the insurgency broke out and was head of the Research and Analysis Wing when IC-814 was hijacked in 1999.
