Happy New Year folks!

I have been reliably informed that this year Vishu is on the 15th. Maybe due to the "Karuthe Vava" (New Moon) today. I am doing the Vishu kanni for my family tomorrow.

...............(edited) What is so shocking about it? Kiyani is due to retire within by april this year when he reaches 58. Frankly how many of us expect him to do it? ....... Kiyani was born in 1942. If Kayani was born in 1942 that would make him 68 and not 58. According to Wiki he was born in 195...

Bijushet, I tried everything - Vit D, 2%, 1%, fat free, skim milk etc. of both organic and non-organic variety. It's the same story. It is really frustrating since I have no idea on what triggers the intolerance. I even maintained a log of what I ate and how much for nearly 6 months. I had a couple...

"The forces have exercised as constituted battle groups at least six times since 2004. Each of the identified unit knows where they will be deployed," a senior General said. According to him, the time for deployment has been cut down to "days". "No longer will the movement ...

May your soul rest in peace and the Almighty give the strength to your family to bear your loss. My condolences to the family of Dr. Bala.

Animesh,

IIRC correctly that email is an exact copy of an article written by Maj. Gen. (Retd) Ashok Mehta for Rediff.com many moons ago.
Nice read though.

Does anyone know what was the casualty from the Indian side? This account seems to be have been written for the Pak madrassa, rather than in an historical manner as a statement of record. Typical to write Indian officers as "Hindu" officers. That is the trouble with living in a mono enviro...

So the Civilisational ember still burns somewhere.

Thank you sir and you are spot on!

Excuse my naivete here, but i really don't understand the point in keeping these things hidden when the Operation was being called all sorts of things, including a failure and a genocide. The hullabaloo would have died down to an extent if the terrorists' misdeeds were exposed then and there. On th...

Some of dads friends (who became some of the senior commanders in the army ) had mentioned that the army was concerned about the charged atmosphere around the time, and many attrocities that they uncovered were kept hidden so as not to create any further bad blood. The army had found many naked wom...

Raja, IIRC correctly, his Brigade was split into 3, with one of the units the 26 Madras led by Lt. Col. KMG Panicker went in. The 14 Mahar was sent to Patti area on the other side of Amritsar for the expected push from the Pakis. He was with the Fighting Fourteen. Surya, I cannot add anything that i...

Yes. He also survived an assassination attempt at hospital where he was admitted after being severely wounded in the 1st assault on the Akal Takht positions. That was the very reason I asked the question. Dad was posted in the hospital (Base Hospital - Jalandhar) and I vaguely remembered his name b...

I think what Ramana meant was that more details on the type of Whisky ( Single Malt, Double Malt), Brand (Peter Scott or McDowells), mugs (standard steel mugs military issue or cut stem glasses). IOW adding specifics to immerse the reader in the experience of the moment with the two Naval officers i...

Abhiti,

It is called "sarcasm" - I am referring to Sanku's post!

Sanju

I had seen posters of it in Oz land Paki Video ( as in VHS Tapes) shops in the 90's. After reading the review on it I never figured out why "International". But then applying logic and reason directed at the abom-e-nation should be my fault.

Looking at Shiv's videos posted by Baljeet, I saw the name Khokrapar and was reminded of the stack of tickets from that railway station that my Father had bought back in '71, of which I still hold one.

Instead of naming the product and getting confused, can we just shorten it to QCKit. Then we can concentrate on the funding part as GeorgeJ has already done the needful calling up SFF in Delhi and confirming the product.

KiranM, We get upset when the Political Class does not do much for the Armed Forces. So when they have put up a manifesto, wherein they have provisions to help the Armed Forces, why should we criticize them? If they win the elections and if they do not follow through with their manifesto then by all...

I think India could do the same since if you don´t wanna see results like the Kaveri, LCA or that main battle tank you have been working on since the 1970s.... Wickberg, That is a flame bait. There was no need for it. This is the LCA thread and please keep the Arjun out of it. Forums are meant to i...

Sachin wrote Hmm.. can't verify this since it was very long time ago. But as far as I have seen most of the JCOs have put atleast 15-20 years of service. Since you don't have any more information on this case, we do not know more on this case :(. Actually, I have been thinking of that meeting in Ka...

Sachin, IIRC back in the late 80's or it may have been 90-91, I met a very young JCO who was supposed to be a direct entry. I think he was in Technical area, Signals or EME. That person had a diploma from an ITI institute. I still remember the guy riding his own scooter (Bajaj :) ) and thinking that...

MohanG, The US does not have a super class of civil administrators like the IAS. The IAS is a creation of the Brits, even then the comparison is tenuous. Why in the first place are we comparing this India vs US? Let us get back to meaningful discussion. Continuing on this line of thought would amoun...

Haric - while i totally agree that indian army is under paid, we should also consider facts pertaining to cost of living. I have lived in a cantonment and went to a kv and the cost was IIRC 18rs/3mnths. Accommodation in Military quarters was very cheap. I think some of these perks that military per...

To Mohan G - You keep comparing the US to India in the way it treats its soldiers. When was the last time you checked the Atlas? If not in the recent past let me refresh your memory- US: Northern Border - Canada (one of its close ally - if not the closest) Southern Border- Mexico (another ally) West...
