The test raises a question. Why have Russian nuclear strategists now invested in the Burevestnik, when the US abandoned nuclear ramjet propulsion in 1964?
Tajikistan did not want to extend the lease because of apparent pressure from Russia & China over non-regional military personnel at the air base, it is learnt.
On 21 Oct, a buzz went up that the govt had released full list of gallantry award recipients along with Op Sindoor citations. I put an AI caddy on the job. It took me into a never-ending rabbit hole.
The first requirement is to procure body bags which have not been authorised till date by the govt . If the body bags were available the same can be carried by the rescue helicopter to the high altitude post where it does-not take time to transfer the mortal remains and get it back ….there has to be a honest intention and we cannot live on old practices in the name of tradition..
Sir all kudos to the army & air force teams who rescued, transported the mortal remains in the best available manner. I have a problem with why the snaps of these mortal remains were taken in these circumstances and then transmitted in the media. As a force we avoid such remains to be seen even by the families, then how come such a public exhibition?
We all have more spare time and easy assess of Social Media and it is also very easy to make negative comments or give remarks without knowing anything about any matter. Needless to say,Had there been No Photos of our Martyr’s in Social Media there would have been No Problems for anyone. Let’s have Full Faith in our Commanders be it a Section/Company Cdr, They have done their Best. Always Men on the Ground know much better than others. Feel Very Proud of the Remarks of Army in their tweets,It needs guts to come out and day something like aberation etc. Nicely written by Air Vice Marshal Manmohan Bahadur Sir. One point,Let some persons be taken to the ground and see what they will say. Thanks a lot. Colonel SK Padhi
Sir there exists a well established sop with eac of first responders a Mlh with coffins from Tezpur to Tawang or Khirmu God knows enough heptrs went to and fro that day Army at Tawang is sufficient then why did wederthe same grisly snaps at Tezpur
Brought out the facts from his personal experience. Everyone on the far flung posts wants to use limited window available due weather conditions to despatch the mortal remains- body bags or no body bags. No one intends to show disrespect.
But yes, a small reminder for those who are in position to clear cases; never ever refuse to approve case which is for honouring the martyrs.
Dignity and restraint mark this response, one simple question, why can’t the forces stock body bags at bases from where such rescue missions are undertaken

Officers are good in English but poor in execution.

Very insightful article sir. We need such an informed perspective, rather than emotional outburst.
I agree with AVM M Bahadur. The soldiers at the forward post did the best they could. There’s no question of disrespecting a fallen comrade’s body.
