To,
Mr Deepak Kumar Sharma,
Senior Branch Manager,
SR No - 82256
Sansar Chand Road, Branch - 333003
Dear Sir,
This year we are reaching an important milestone in New India's success journey, the hundredth year of successful operations. The milestone becomes momentous in today's era when the average lifespan of a company, listed in the S&P 700 index of Leading US companies, has reduced from 67 years in 1920 to just 5 years in 2020. The moment is of great significance and pride for all the New Indians and is an occasion to celebrate New India's legacy and its long successful journey.
New India today has evolved into a true multinational general insurance company, as envisioned by the founder of the company. The journey till date has been remarkable and the future appears to be brighter.
The growth of New India implies a strong economic growth of the country over the years. Our business of protecting the businesses has helped in creating many successful Indian giants. We would like to thank all the valued clients and customers for believing us all these years. We would also like to thank the agency force, the brokers, all other intermediaries and associates for their trust and continued relationship with our company.
But all these would not have been possible without the committed New Indians who have always lived our core value of excellence in customer service and satisfaction. I would like to congratulate and thank you all New Indians, without whom this journey would never have been possible.

Security in the Contemporary World
At its most basic, security implies freedom from threats. Human existence and the life of a country are full of threats. Does that mean that every single threat counts as a security threat?
Those who study security, therefore, generally say that only those things that threaten ‘core values’ should be regarded as being of interest in discussions of security. Whose core values though? The core values of the country as a whole? The core values of ordinary women and men?

men in the street? Do governments, on behalf of citizens, always have the same notion of core values as the ordinary citizen?
Furthermore when we speak of threats to core values, how intense should the threats be? Surely there are big and small threats to virtually every value we hold dear. Can all those threats be brought into the understanding of security? Every time another country does something or fails to do something, this may damage the core values of one's country.
Every time a person is robbed in the streets the security of ordinary people as they live their daily lives is harmed. Yet, we would be paralysed if we took such an extensive view of security: everywhere we looked, the world would be full of dangers.
So we are brought to a conclusion: security relates only to extremely dangerous threats. Threats that could so endanger core values that those values would be damaged beyond repair if we did not do something to deal with the situation.
Having said that, we must admit that security remains a slippery idea. For instance, have societies always had the same conception of security? It would be surprising if they did because so many things change in the world around us. And, at any given time in world history, do societies have the same conception of security? Again it would be amazing if six hundred and fifty crore people organised in nearly 200 countries had the same conception of security! Let us begin by putting the various notions of security under two groups: traditional and non-traditional conception of security.
Long Answer Question
Question: Most of the time when we read and hear about security we are talking about traditional, national security conceptions of security. In the traditional conception of security, the greatest danger to a country is from military threats. The source of this danger is another country which by threatening military action endangers the core values of sovereignty. Military action also endangers the lives of ordinary citizens. It is unlikely that in a war only soldiers will be hurt or killed.
In responding to the threats of war a government has three basic choices: to surrender; to prevent the other side from attacking by promising to raise the costs of war to an unacceptable level; to defend itself when war actually breaks out so as to deny the attacking country its objectives and to turn back or defeat the attacking forces altogether. Governments surrender when actually confronted by war but they will not advertise this policy of the country.
Solution / Explanation
The passage discusses the traditional conception of national security, which focuses primarily on military threats from other countries. According to this view, the greatest danger to a nation is military action by another state that threatens its sovereignty and the lives of its citizens. War is not limited to soldiers; civilians are also at risk.
When faced with the threat of war, a government has three main options:
- Surrender: Giving in to the attacking country's demands. Governments rarely admit to this policy publicly.
- Deterrence: Preventing an attack by threatening to make the cost of war too high for the attacker (e.g., through military buildup or alliances).
- Defense: Fighting back when war occurs to deny the attacker its goals and defeat its forces.
Thus, traditional security is state-centric, military-focused, and reactive to external threats.
