@kartikkale84748@sushilskinner@PMOIndia@adgpi@RSSorg@BJP4India Sorry Sir, we need more soldiers like you . You must have done something extraordinary that you got AVSM as many 3 star offcrs dont have it. Railway clerks was just sarcasm my point was govt has put forward many schemes in last decade that were not of welfare of offcrs .
Colonial sports should be done away with. Our priority must be traditional Indian sports like Gilli Danda. Be a true nationalist. If you cannot play Gilli Danda, you might as well leave the country. Congratulations to @IAF_MCC, serving and retired officers.
SUPREME COURT OF INDIA. 🇮🇳

Reduction of Troops in Indian Army: There is a whisper in the air that the Indian Army has been told to reduce 2 Lacs troops from the existing manpower within a period of next about one year. If this is true, I am afraid that 1962 is going to be repeated when the then Prime Minister tried to defend the Country through Civil Police and Assam Rifles etc against China. There is still time. Please wake up. 75% from the First batch of Agniverrs are due for release in January 2027.

Today, we remember Bahadur Shah Zafar once again:
कितना बदनसीब है ज़फ़र दफन के लिए,
दो गज ज़मीं ना मिली कू-ए-यार में।
ACM AP Singh, the finest of them all, could not receive his farewell at the Air Force Golf Course because he belongs to the borders, not Delhi. Some time ago, it was Gadkari ji; now it is Modiji.
I agree completely with both Modiji and Shri Gadkari ji. The Navy has no place in Mumbai, and the Air Force has no place in Delhi. These organisations are meant for the borders, and that is where they belong. It brings to mind Stalin’s death, when Marshal Zhukov moved the army into Moscow, despite the restrictions imposed under the Communists. The power struggle after Stalin’s death made it possible.
I often wonder why we need armed forces at all. Salaries, pensions, CSD, subsidised liquor—what is it all for? Nehru was so visionary that he did not want a fauj, until that vision collapsed in 1962.
At times, I wonder why our young officers and soldiers are so emotional. They are, after all, steeped in a colonial hangover. Let me be clear, ladies and gentlemen: whatever remains of the ethos of your armed forces is rooted in that colonial legacy. Without it, the forces risk becoming like other civil services—corrupt, inept, unprofessional, indifferent, arrogant and self-centred.
Yet it is important to make them Amrit Kaal-compliant, and we have capable people in our armed forces who will realise this dream of the BJP and RSS. My suggestion to the government is straightforward: close all armed forces institutes in major cities and move them to border areas. Let's start with DSOI, Dhaula Kuan.
I stand with Modiji, heart and mind, in whatever he is doing to reform our armed forces.
I propose the government launch a new scheme called the Bharat Army Quality Works Amendment Scheme (BAQWAS).
Under BAQWAS, the government should take over all golf courses (or ,"environmental park and training areas") of the armed forces.
Then they should build Theaters on them, where people can go and watch films and plays.
With this we can achieve Theaterization of the Armed Forces.
There is no problem that cannot be solved by BAQWAS.
Is this the BJP government's way of punishing the Chief of the Indian Air Force, Air Chief Marshal A. P. Singh, for raising uncomfortable questions in the national interest?
Since assuming office on 30 September 2024, he has repeatedly raised red flags about India's defence preparedness and the government's strategic and operational shortcomings concerning the Air Force.
Some of the key concerns he has highlighted include:
- India's growing capability gap with China
- The gap between government promises and ground realities
- Delays in indigenous defence production
- Questions over the government's commitment to *Atmanirbhar Bharat* in defence
- Critical capability gaps in the IAF
- Shortcomings in defence research and development
- Shortages of skilled talent in the defence sector
If a decorated Air Chief Marshal raises legitimate concerns about India's defence preparedness, should he be penalised for speaking the truth - or should the government act on those concerns?
Is this how a nation honours its heroes?
Not even maintaining the basic dignity of an outgoing service chief. Let’s see how many retired senior military officers call out Modi for this, for we know that the current serving brass has been chosen for being spineless.
