In 1981, a drunk IAS probationer terrorised peers with a gun during a Himalayan trek. When Home Ministry didn’t act, academy head PS Appu quit in protest, setting off storm in Parliament.
American objectives are unmet. They neither have muscle nor motivation to resume the war. As for Iran, the regime didn’t just survive, it’s now led by more radical individuals.
Shanti Swaroop Bhatnagar, the leader of the Bar, appeared pro bono in this case. The entire post praises Mr. Appu.
Is it not interesting that V.K. Singh hailed from Bihar, and Mr. Appu was from the Bihar cadre? Mr. Appu preferred to desert the cadre because of animosity with V.K. Singh’s father-in-law, a chief engineer and a powerful technocrat.
In Mussoorie, Appu got an opportunity to settle the score. V.K. Singh, who came from a modest background, was an exceptionally bright student.
The then Home Minister Giani Zail Singh emerged as the most intelligent person in the episode to consider the case on merit, not on the media trial. The victim, Vrinda Swarup, an IAS probationer, was from an elite background and had cast aspersions on the modest background of V. K. Singh, causing (unjustified) annoyance of Singh on the spur of the moment.,.
I have seen VK Singh as a desolate, bereft and depressed young man in the office of his advocate.
Please read the Allahabad High Court order.

A well-drafted story. Kudos to the writer.
The lady probationer who stared down the gun barrel without flinching contributed enormously to the education sector.
