CDS Rawat must articulate a management structure in the DMA that is internally consistent and logical. Otherwise, the military risks being neither here nor there.
If anything, India's political leaders will now be more susceptible to military advice without any corresponding increase in their ability to interrogate them.
NASAMS II will be part of the overall multi-layered air defence shield including the indigenous BMD, S-400 Triumf and the Barak 8 besides other systems already in place.
There are no short-term solutions for increasing defence pensions. It is a political challenge that the National Security Council must holistically examine.
Bipin Rawat said those below officers’ rank in the military are sent home at the age of 37-38 and they are forced to look for a job, which may not be dignified for them.
Since all soldiers in a battle do their duty, identifying the ‘bravest among the brave’ becomes a complex issue for Indian military. Here’s what it can do.
India's generals must remember that when they speak, the impact lasts for a long time. Field Marshal Cariappa's 1970 remark about a military rule is a case in point.
Alongside buying into the grift that is dating apps, the girlies are also installing astrology apps like Astrotalk to investigate the same tired mystery—will he ever text back?
Aquaculture is the fastest growing food sector in Africa, offering significant returns on investment for all involved and achieving the continent’s goals for food security, dignified livelihoods and economic growth.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
Well..we need the personnel as if we have less personnel we wouldn’t be able to stand out to China and Pakistan. But we need to modernize and increase
Our military budget. Taxation needs to be increased and everyone should pay tax as in India only 2percent of the population pays tax. 2percent is too little. Our taxation system needs to change. We need to assign private companies to make lots of good tech for the military and increase buying of new and technologically advanced weapons. Our education system needs to be better. We need more money and that happens when people pay tax truthfully and the taxation system allows majority of the pppulation to pay tax. USA is already way ahead and China is following.
I just read a comment which says that quantity doesn’t matter , quality does. I would just like to address to the person that even quality of Our Indian Army is of appreciable excellence . The thing is with increasing population the resources are becoming scarce which makes it difficult to reciprocate in a optimum way . But I Am sure our army is still very worthy to stay on one of the best armies list in the world . It is worth defending our population despite of comparative less technology than other nations like Russia , China & USA. Also it is not official yet that India is on the top of largest armies or not .
As long as we have the brain drain we will continue to have this problem. Moreover, the skills are to be given precedence over some welfare system nation’s growth and security. The people of India enjoys more freedom than what they deserve, leading to frequent protest against everything without applying their wisdom.
The parliament is ensured that it does not function. I have not seen any healthy discussion in the parliament except rushing to the well and throwing papers .
We need to get rid may things in India to make at par or supercede other nations.
Opinion/ argument of the writer are welcome provided government to include buracracy are as efficient as China and Japan secondly technology can beat technology not number s history should guide us while we take such strategies decision Which will have serious remifications for existence of this country…we must come out of nehruvian mind set..
Pension should not be given to persons of short service comission,many ppl leave army after few years and get pension.one must work in army for at least 15-20 yrs to get pension.
No one gets a pension with less than 20 years service (unless wounded in action).
What a bullshit solution , shortservice never gets pension idiot and 14 year is mandatory for pension u sick head
There are many unfilled vacancies in the CAPFs. Indian Army could send its surplus manpower to Border guarding CAPFs and shed all its body fat. Indian Army must bring down the mean age of its fighting personnel to 24 to 26 yrs and average age of its officers to 30 to 33 yrs.
CAPF on the contrary are not needed, they are nothing but ROZGAR YOJANA. Instead of curtailing the Army numbers useless forces like BSF, ITBP, SSB should be disbanded and CRPF and CISF should be combined.
Army, if insufficient, has a partner. The Danda Jhanda party wears full pants now but the dhanda is the same and they can police the Indian-Pakistan border-If allowed., claims their General in Nagpur.
What’s the point of having a large army when you can’t even equip them properly and nor can you pay them. Babu and politician nexus keeps the armed forces weak on purpose to prevent a coup. That’s stupid thinking. They play with the security of the nation and that’s treason.
