The conventional notion of security has been and remains State-centric with military as its major instrument, entrusted with the duty to defend the territorial integrity of the nation-state. No doubt, safeguarding territorial integrity from external aggression is mostvital for the honorable existence of any nation-state. However there are equally, if not more vital concerns and facets of security, that are often, ignored in the specialized security discourse of military strategists-, where the concerned area is ravaged by militancy, hatredand innocent killings. Military security through armed and ammunitions with latest equipment’s often neglects the social structures, people’s movements, and non-state actors, thus making the entire process elitist, parochial and often insensitive. The changing nature of Civil-Military Relations in Asia has been focus for any seriousscholar of peace and security. This current research is on the Civil Military Relations, an Army – Corporate world initiative. This is aimed at bringing peace to the people of the Kashmir Valley.
