Security Challenges

Why it matters

• Threats to internal stability directly impede the implementation of developmental schemes and the delivery of public services in affected regions.
• The emergence of non-traditional security threats, such as cyber warfare and disinformation, requires a shift from conventional military-centric strategies to integrated governance models.
• Effective management of security challenges is essential to maintain the rule of law and foster an environment conducive to economic growth and foreign investment.

How it is asked

Candidates should focus on the nexus between internal security and development, the role of federalism in law and order, and the evolving nature of asymmetric threats, while framing responses within the context of the constitutional mandate for state security.
