Why India is always on defensive mode?

This is the stand we have seen post independence that India never strikes first in war. This narrative has put us on back-foot all the time in diplomacy and in national security. My question is are we really a race which never fought a war at a will? Well our political pseudo peacelovers teach us only that, we have read in our textbooks that we are followers of Gandhi and Budhh. But when same question asked to history and mythology we find different answer, we read about Chanakya who has put his whole life to end a dynasty and to unite Bharat. We read about Ram and Krishna who have fought against evils to save people. We read about Bappa Rawal who has expanded his Kingdom into all directions but no one teach us about them as we are supposed to be the breed of hares who just run away and give too weak response on any attack to us. Why we are being taught one side of history? Don't we have right to learn about whole history of ours? Within the society we find many bullies but all of them goes silent when it comes to fight for nation. The left visioned history, politics of caste, corruption to roots made us a nation with majority of obsessed people. Here we think about vote bank, about internal benefits before taking any action against enemy state. Yes war is not a solution but it's a step towards peaceful solution with enemy state. Everyday neighboring country violets cease fire, every alternate day we have news of some terror attack, we have Maoist problem in north east, Naxals in eastern part of our nation and we still speak about sugary non violence thing. Isn't it a time when we should show some aggression towards our enemy? Remember to negotiate peace we have to have some power with us, no one listens to weaker. Time has come when we have to rise as a nation and without having peace around us we can never become developed nation. This is the time when we have to adopt new strategies to silence our enemies and for that we have to change our narrative of Peacelover nation of Gandhi. We are nation of Gandhi but also nation of Chanakya and Chandragupt, we don't want to put our next generation into perils of these fake peace loving talks, we want peace but not at cost of our lives. We want friendship but on our conditions. All these can not happen till we have religions, castes getting importance even during drafting our security policies, we have to think as an Indian first which can pressurize any government to change the ultra defensive narrative. Policy must be even if you think to do damage to us, you will be destroyed.
