Named after the most famous Chinese product silk, Silk Route is a commercial trade route across Eurasia and prior to prosperity of sea route it had created a legendry history of Eurasian continent. Treated as the important connecting link and an effective agency of cultural exchange in the past silk route/road is a huge communication project connecting east and west. Apart from being a major trading route this road was of immense significance in the establishment and maintenance of diplomatic relations across the different nations as well. The revival of this historic route in contemporary globalised era amidst the technologically advanced and a more sophisticated information communication network with increasing independence among the states is the need of the hour. The route can serve for the dynamic development of healthy political relations, trade and better economic relation which in turn will strengthen the states if mutually advantageous partnership gets developed among all states on the Silk Road. This paper mainly focuses on the socio-cultural significance and more specifically upon the revival of the historical silk route along with the underlying issues and impediments. This paper also highlights the state of the land locked states of Afghanistan and other few central Asian countries and dependence on their neighbors.Keywords

The exploring of the phenomenon of fratricide in armed forces has suffered from a scholarly disinterest hitherto. Sociologists, psychologists, policy makers and defense authorities have shied away from exploring this fatal trend in a holistic perspective particularly in the Indian context. Though few Studies have been conducted on the theme but hardly any study has been concerned and linked to the troopers' marginalization or alienation within the system itself. The concern and emphasis so far has largely been limited to the combat strategies and effective operational planning but the individual soldier as a human being still remains under-discussed and undervalued while overemphasizing on the security system and law and order maintenance mechanism as a macro structure. Also the role of concerned defense intellectuals and the agencies in this regard are not only uncertain and insufficient but apathetic as well. This paper mainly focuses upon the fratricide as a psycho-social phenomenon and digging the various factors responsible for this growing trend, which if left unchecked can have serious implications upon the armed forces discipline, excellence and security situation and above all reliability factor and security of defense mechanism and of men in uniform while dealing with their own colleagues or officers.Keywords
