15th August this year will be marked as the 79th year anniversary of India’s Independence from a long-standing colonial period of more than 800 years. The Independence 2025 theme is expected to be around ‘Operation Sindoor’ that was launched on May 7, 2025, by the Indian Armed Forces. Speaking of the defence forces, there is also an organisation that operates in shadows to protect the country, and it is called R&AW (Research and Analysis Wing). Founded under the leadership of legendary IPS officer R.N Kao in 1968, it has been continuously involved in protecting India from external threats. This article lists down some of the best books on RAW that deal with the life of spies, agents, secret missions, and multiple covert operations conducted by them in order to protect the sovereignty and integrity of the country. Check out these books to know more about the unsung heroes of the country, many of whom died protecting the nation without even getting the privilege of taking their last breath on their motherland.
