Union Ministers Dr Farooq Abdullah [ Images ], Ghulam Nabi Azad [ Images ], Jairam Ramesh [ Images ] and G K Vasan have complained to Cabinet Secretary Ajit Seth about the rude behaviour of the Special Protection Group personnel at 7 Race Course Road, the prime minister's residence.

Cosequently, Seth apologised on behalf of the SPG and promised that the commandoes would henceforth behave politely.

An angry Abdullah narrated the incident to the cabinet secretary on Thursday before Prime Minister Manmohan Singh [ Images ] arrived for the Cabinet meeting. Nabi and Ramesh said their Cabinet papers were checked when their cars were entering the prime minister's house to attend the meeting of the Union Cabinet.

"This is not the first time; at least four or five such incidents have taken place this year," Vasan said.

"We will go back if the SPG does not learn the basics. Such security exercises are appreciated inside the PM's house complex, but not on the road. Are we unwanted elements inside 7 Race Course Road? Let me bring this to the notice of the prime minister," added Abdullah.

Seth is said to have apologised to the disgruntled ministers with folded hands . When the ministers saw the PM arriving, the issue was treated as closed.

The SPG had pushed aside a Bahujan Samaj Party MP inside the Parliament corridors during the Budget session. And it was Pranab Mukherjee [ Images ], finance minister then, who tendered an apology as the leader of Lok Sabha.

"The SPG will never learn; they are rude. The SPG team working for Sonia Gandhi [ Images ] and Rahul often ill-treat MPs," said a Union minister.

Sources said the SPG has sought approval to buy 10 Defence Sherpa-2 counter assault vehicles and 6 Defence Sherpa-2 quick reaction team vehicles from Renault Trucks Defense at a cost of nearly Rs 51 crore.

Sherpa-2 (now Sherpa Light Scout) is a 4x4 tactical and light armored vehicle customized with ballistic, mine and improvised explosive devices kits for tactical missions such as scouting, patrol and convoy escort. It is a high mobility vehicle, able to cross any obstacle including gradients of up to 100 per cent and can carry 5 persons.

Hello

I am looking for a girlfriend of mine who lives here in Switzerland of her father. This was before her baby back in England. This was from 1943 to 1944 in Switzerland interned. He had previously taken refuge in Italy from a German prisoner of war camp in Switzerland and had been able to save the.

His name is Kadar CHULAM. Born on 2 March 1919 in akalghar.He served with the 3 / 7 jput regiment with the rank of sepoy. His military number is: 16 570
His parents were Ibrahim & Saeran
times to address was: akalghar jagraon Dep. Ranka india.Address: Ludehana

Unfortunately we have had no more and left the country since Mr.Chulam from Switzerland, we lose track.
We are not sure whether Chulam is really written. in the subject, itis also written to some of Gulam

Maybe they can help us or can you tell us to whom we could contact us.


Many Thanks

The former Army chief said, "I visited the village and saw how even women are against the nuclear power plant. The land where the power plant is to be set up is fertile and farmers totally depended on this land. About 1,500 farmers will go landless. It will also hit the landless labourers who work for these farmers. Where will they go? There should be a debate before setting up a nuclear power plant."

He said nuclear power is destructive and gave the example of Japan's Fukushima tragedy. "There are many resources from where we can get electricity. Then why nuclear power plant?" he asked.

In Commanding an Air Force Squadron in the Twenty-first Century, Lt Col Jeffry Smith updates and expands upon Col Timothy T. Timmons's Commanding an Air Force Squadron (1993). The newer book preserves the framework and overall feel of its predecessor while providing more current information about and additional support to some dated topics. Colonel Smith demonstrates an excellent grasp of the challenges faced by squadron commanders.

Blessed with an easy writing style, he walks the reader though many types of issues that commanders deal with throughout their tenure. Although the author takes a light but serious approach to topics (note such chapter rifles as "Cats and Dogs" and "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"), he does not shy away from difficult topics--closing down a unit or the death of a squadron member, for example.

Osprey and her sisters' retirements were making the way for a new class of warship known as the littoral combat ship or LCS. LCS will continue where Osprey leaves off by carrying on and refining the Navy's critical mission of countering mine threats to the nation. Osprey and Robin completed decommissioning maintenance availabilities, then be towed to Beaumont, Texas.

The mine countermeasures module also continues to have ongoing issues, with Rear Admiral Frank Pandolfe reporting dissatisfaction with the performance and looking to replace it with a modified airborne laser mine detection system.

A minehunter is a naval vessel that actively detects and destroys individual naval mines. Minesweepers, on the other hand, clear mined areas as a whole, without prior detection of mines. A vessel that combines both of these roles is known as a mine countermeasures vessel (MCMV).

NEW DELHI: Former naval chief Nirmal Verma has been appointed India's new high commissioner to Canada. Verma's appointment was cleared by the President on Thursday after PMO recommended his name.

Verma's appointment is interesting because the external affairs ministry had earlier recommended additional secretary Basant Gupta's name for the position. Gupta, who heads the passport and visa division of MEA, is said to be close to foreign minister S M Krishna. He played a key role in implementing Krishna's initiative to open Passport Seva Kendras across the country.

PMO, however, rejected his candidature and asked MEA to instead recommend Verma. The foreign ministry had no choice but to recommend the former Navy chief.

Hello folks,

I've been reading up on 1962 China war, and regardless of source, there is no discussion on what Chinese withdrew. They had occupied Tawang (that they now want) - so why did they withdraw especially in Arunachal Pradesh ?

Was it that - they were afraid of their supply lines lasting through the winter or were they apprehensive of the reinforcements being brought in ?

Enterprise was headed back to Virginia following a regularly scheduled deployment when the Sept. 11 attacks happened. As soon as the ship's captain saw the attacks [b]he turned around without orders to steam toward southwest Asia, where it later launched some of the first attacks against Afghanistan.[/b] The ship's captain was Adm.

Wonder if we had any such instances with our forces!!

The English confrontation with Indian rockets came in 1780 at the Battle of Guntur. The closely massed, normally unflinching British troops broke and ran when the Indian Army laid down a rocket barrage in their midst.

Irwin E. Alber, "Aerospace Engineering on the Back of an Envelope"
English | ISBN: 3642225365 | 2012 |

Engineers need to acquire “Back-of-the-Envelope” survival skills to obtain rough quantitative answers to real-world problems, particularly when working on projects with enormous complexity and very limited resources. In the case studies treated in this book, we show step-by-step examples of the physical arguments and the resulting calculations obtained using the quick-fire method. We also demonstrate the estimation improvements that can be obtained through the use of more detailed physics-based Back-of-the-Envelope engineering models. These different methods are used to obtain the solutions to a number of design and performance estimation problems arising from two of the most complex real-world engineering projects: the Space Shuttle and the Hubble Space Telescope satellite.

What the Hell is that doing here?
