We must start respecting ourselves and our subordinates( I mean give them the due. Handle them with kindness and tact and not bully them. Otherwise they will spread the kind word around as what happens at home. I have often observed unobtrusively, that the ORs hardly have the respect for their superiors, and obedience is only by imposition and not out of respect. This will not stand us in good stead Also, we cringe and crawl for small freebies from politicos and small fry like bureaucrats who treat us like dirt. We need to first improve our image by projecting the best that we do. Put your best foot forward. Don't rant and rave with poor language full of spelling mistakes. We seriously need to think of having our own media cell to project ourselves better and not depend on other media. The catch phrases will only remain-phrases like "Do you have it in You?' Today we feel hollow and empty and violated and despite all this life has to go on. If we are ordered to go to war we go and fight a war which the politicos are not really convinced that we can win. We need to improve our morale and behave with dignity. If we feel that it has been violated then we must quit. There is no point in ranting and raving and frothing through all the gaps.<BR/>With anger and in angst.

In the British days, even a Lieutenant was a "Burra Sahab'. A representative of the power of the state, and therefore not tasked to do menial things. The way we behave with officers even up to the rank of Col. is shameful. They are treated like cannon fodder, like menials. <BR/><BR/>The army is all too ready to accept and assign any degrading and stupid duty to a Major. Jobs which are properly the responsibility of a JCO are being handled by a Lt. Col. <BR/><BR/>Whats the idea? When will the higher command give izzat to its own men? <BR/><BR/>What of the JCOs? Dyou know that a Subedaar Major is the equivelent in Pay and Parity even according to this pay commission, of an Assistant Commissioner of Police/Deputy Superintendent of police/Sub Divisional Magistrate? How many of you people know this? Even officers go begging before these group B district officials, but how do they treat the Subedar Major?<BR/><BR/>Much of this equivlence and parity problem is because of the armys own insolent and foolish attitude towards its officers.

Since Indian elites have stopped believing in Principles, there is no Policy. Since there is No Policy, there is No system. In the absence of benchmarks and standards, every opportunity and every action is directed at expediency, survival and day to day benefits. Grabbing, manipulations, hoodwinking, treachery and a sense of despondency leading to unethical behavior has broken down what ever remains of system. There is nothing between groups and leaders but a sense of mistrust.<BR/><BR/>It is most unfortunate that it all was started by IAS cadre who claim to be the guardians of the system and the so called moral keepers, "permanent executive" and "political Controller". Since IAS claimed so, their unprincipled behavior led to the CCS people and their office peons calling themselves the Government.<BR/>inexperienced, greedy and corrupt Politician put their seal of approval on such undemocratic claims and beliefs.<BR/><BR/>In the absence of Control, The IAS have attined powers and positions not meant and intened for them. The bureaucratic space being limited, this was done at the illegitimate costs of the other cadres. IAS also assumed the mantle of the strategic managers of the Country and even Natinal interests have fallen to secondary value to their personal causes.<BR/><BR/>IAS is the root of all administrative chaos in the Country, dissatisfaction of all other cadres, poor state of Armed Forces and misguidance to the Politicians. All the rot in the Country in area of Policing and Administration can be directly ascribed to the system failing and becoming subordinate to the personal ambitions of "Boston Brahmins" called IAS and IPS. Services close to them such as CCS, revenue official, secretariat staff, Thanedaar, Police became scavengers following them. <BR/><BR/>It is the result and consequantial effects which justifies or proves the efficacy of a system. High moral ground, reasoning and colonial system of recruitment for All India Services and Class B services is a pathetic failure. Injection of social justice elements have had no improving effects.<BR/><BR/>Why then pontificate and say that the system ever had principles and the system ever existed when the keepers of the system such as Cab secy deliberately and successively sabotaged the poor system in their own favor.<BR/><BR/>My humble request to them is to spare the Armed forces for good of their country. They should hit at Kayanis and Masoods if they have some thing left below their underpants rather than enslaving the Indian Armed Forces in retaliation. <BR/><BR/>Indian Armed Forces have had enough of these Boston Babus....Run Armed Forces on "Principles" and "system" if your itchy subconscious desires to govern fauzies persists. But do not poke your nose in operational affairs like you did in Mumbay ... Do not play generals...Nehru Ji has done that enough and we have not recovered from that humiliation so far...<BR/><BR/>Jai Hind...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-46551009622471856782008-12-25T08:34:00.000+05:302008-12-25T08:34:00.000+05:30It turns out that the political consensus that was...<I>It turns out that the political consensus that was being sought on the demand didn't come through.

So a thought for them as they languish in protest at Jantar Mantar.</I><BR/><B> Someone has sent you up sh*t creek by leaking duff information. Who ever told you that 'No party thought it was feasible'. The Italian B**ch & and her imbecile wimps are not the sole party of the Govt of India. We are in a democracy. Here is what the leader of the opposition has written.<BR/>Press Statement issued by Shri Jaswant Singh<BR/>Leader of the Opposition (Rajya Sabha) <BR/><BR/> <BR/> <BR/>The Bhartiya Janata Party views with concern the relay fast undertaken by veterans of our defence forces at Jantar Mantar as it enters its 8th day today. Sipahi Suleman Khan and Naik Lek Raj, who have been on ‘fast unto death’, have now been joined by Captain Om Prakash and Subedar Major Dahiya. The number of volunteers sitting on ‘fast unto death’ is likely to rise in the days to come.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>The basic demand of the veterans is ‘One Rank one Pension’ (OROP). The issue has already been debated in Parliament and examined by the Parliamentary Committee on Defence in detail. The unanimous recommendation is to accept this demand. The BJP has always supported this vital concern.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>Shri Jaswant Singh the Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha had once again raised the issue on the floor of the house on 23 October 2008. He has also written to the Raksha Mantri drawing his attention to the matter urgently.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>Their demands are:-<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>One Rank One Pension (OROP)<BR/>Resettlement till the age of sixty<BR/>Consideration of an Ex Servicemen Commission<BR/>Services representation on all committees deciding issues of their concern.<BR/> <BR/><BR/>Pension is a right for services rendered. Elementary logic suggests that two individuals rendering equal service and reaching the same rank, thereby having discharged the same level of responsibility, should get equal compensation, irrespective of their dates of retirement.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>The Bhartiya Janata Party therefore demands of the Government to immediately take steps to save lives of the veterans, both being Personnel Below Officer rank through suitable and urgent action.</B>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-19809224653826547522008-12-24T23:51:00.000+05:302008-12-24T23:51:00.000+05:30what will be stand of the armed forces now....beca...what will be stand of the armed forces now....because they were told to be fighting for izzat and not for money................what will happen to other anomalies which were inserted by the babus..............Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-78263025069917067262008-12-24T22:30:00.000+05:302008-12-24T22:30:00.000+05:30Please stop comparing to the IAS u idiots.

Make him feel like a pariah in the Integrated HQS. Write notings like - 'The officer has no ground experience so he should visit the formation on ground before further action. Send them to J&K, Siachen and the NE before for every noting they write. When in J&K take him on a patrol and dump the SOB. In Siachen leave him at Sonam and don't get him picked up.

They are so scared and terrifies of the Napaki genarals and Abdali type terrorists that when they are beaten up by those, they start biting at and degrading their own generals in retaliation and frustrations.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Now they want more than a division size force of Armymen, specially trained and specialized as NSG in metro hubs under IPS clots. <BR/><BR/>Tomorrow, DGP J&K, will claim that he is in-charge of Northern Command and Northern theater, citing NSG as a precedent. They have already started calling the CPOs and PMF without militarization of the CPOs. Slowly Mr Kumawat will start designating himself as Field Marshall Kumawat(internal Security). They have No sense of of national causes when it comes to their own self- aggrandizement. They are all set to raise to dust the last bastion of Indian democracy - the Armed Forces.<BR/><BR/>Army must put their foot down on the issue of Command of SAG. Army would need that fine force as force multiplier and as specialized resource in all contingencies including anti insurgency, anti terrorism, peace and wartime requirements. NSG must always remain in the loop of operational plans of the Defence Forces and needs to be trained and prepared for it even if the administrative Control of the Force remains under Mr Kumawat. IPS, professionally have nothing to do with such a force.<BR/><BR/>It is thus necessary that these huge resources and forces should not be allowed to be under Police just to placate IPS lobby. This is not the issue of turf or ego. This issue needs to recognized and acted upon in terms of operation necessity of Defense of India (internally and externally). Putting them under command of a professional general of the Army would be functional necessity, logical and right step.<BR/><BR/>I hope sense prevails with Chidamabaram ji and Antony Ji. Or the NSG will degenerate into another huge police ATS....<BR/><BR/><BR/>Listen sir..our IPS are no match for Drranies, Kayanies and Guls...
