Elections 2019- Let the Armed Forces Be !! May we appeal to all political parties to not drag the Armed Forces into the electoral battle, directly or indirectly. They are apolitical & it's in the best interest of the Nation to keep them so.

Whilst we celebrate Kargil Vijay, it’s also a time for the Indian Army to introspect on the costly lessons learnt in multiple spheres. A professional Army like ours cannot afford to repeat such mistakes , for the cost will be paid in blood . Intelligence shortfalls still continue

The most appropriate response for Pulwama would be a covert operation to get JEM Chief-a difficult but not impossible proposition, all our agencies should use their resources & ingenuity for this , it doesn't hav to be today , but get him we must !!
