Agreed, RAW should be given more freedom more like Pakistan's ISI. We are improving but still not there yet.The problem with R&AW and IB is the lack of a vision and long term perspective on a given subject. Both are bureaucratic organizations led and controlled by IPS and their visions can never surpass their ability to reproduce what is written in Khan Academy's IAS guide or Brilliant Tutorial Notes. Their rivalry is also a friendly match between two batch mates to gain proximity to Madam or Modi rather than being professional.
Coupled with that has been abject political interference where they have been shamefully used for internal political objectives of a particular party. Either R&AW simply does not a bird called "National Interest" and a "Grand Vision" for a great India or their vision has no political approval or there is no political consensus on that. Otherwise, why would they botch up in Srilanka, Punjab, Assam, Nagaland, Bangladesh, 1965, 1971, Kargil, J&K, and now Ladakh?
They work for political parties . have their bureaucratic interests to buttress and capable of changing colours and intelligence as it suits the boss.
What they did in Nepal and what they must be doing there looks haphazard without any long term plan and a vision. They are singularly responsible for large scale communists and Maoists surge in Nepal which is now grown into a monster and biting India.
