Dartford, So the Subedar Major now carries out the role of the Regimental Havildar Major. Need not neccessarily be. He is more like a father figure for all the enlisted men, and generally the CO consults him in matters of regimental traditions and matters which have an impact on enlisted men. But ot...

Sachin

Another reason I have heard is that, it is these ranks which offer some sort of a better pay and perks for an ordinary jawan/soldier. If these ranks are removed, the promotion prospects would stop at the rank of Havildar (and there would be tough competition to reach that rank too). I feel for UN ba...

Sachin

The first change i remember would be the changing of the Lanyard, which was first put around the neck (like a noose, symbolising...i won't go further, would prob get into the bad books of MLI officers in BR!!) and now it is worn like other inf units around the (left?) arm. AFAIK the personell of un...

Does'nt the BHM wear a red sash? And also heard that in some regiments they have a rank Regimental Orderly Havildar. Is it true?

Sachin

The "belt" you see across his chest is known as a Cross belt I don't think this belt is known as a crossbelt. A cross belt would be thinner, and generally worn from the right shoulder. The ends of the belt would also be buckled to the leather belt. A similar type of belt, I have also seen...

Sachin

Time flies!!! Bharat-Rakshak is 7 years old. This made me think about the days gone by. It was 6 years since I set foot in Bangalore. With a typical crew cut and a VIP Suitcase gifted by the JCOs of my NCC Battalion, I landed at Bangalore City Jn. (SBC) on October 13th, 1997. It was here I created ...

Sachin

The favourite song of mine is Aaj himalay ki chotti se phir hamne lalkara hein..door haton..door haton.. Hindustan Hamara hein.., from the old movie Kismat.

Does any one have any Real Audio or MP3, of this song?

Sachin

Best Wishes to the General Saheb

Here is a tune by the Army Band to honour the 1971 Hero.
Sam Bahadur - by LB Gurung

Three cheers to Bharat-Rakshak and Rakesh Koshy who made BR what it is today. Hooray.... Auld Lang Syne "Should auld acquaintance be forgot, Or friendship e'er grow cauld? Should we nae tighter draw the knot Aye as we're growing auld? How comes it, then, my worthy friend, Wha used to be sae kin...

The Kerala Police had tried to implement the community policing scheme. It might have worked very well in Britain, but it was found out that it will not work in Kerala. The reasons. 1. As per the scheme, it was decided that an H.C, and an SI from local police stations, will get-together at certai...

Sachin

shim By slow moving vehicles I meant, that they are purposely driven slowly, so that can be on the look out for traffic violators.The majority of vehicles with Kerala Police are Mahindra Jeeps, but many of them are new models and NOT in a very bad shape.Major cities like Delhi and Mu...

Sachin

shim The cars which you refer to as Police Cars are actually escort vehicles. In many states, these cars are used to transport senior officials. Some of them are also used to be part of the cavalcade which escorts the ministers

Sachin

In the incident which I was mentioning, the crowd was quite menacing, and was not prepared to go back even if the police fired upon in the air. They had very clear cut intentions to man-handle the minister and his escort party.Firing in the air, frankly speaking I do not understand the logic behi...

Sachin

What is an Illegal Order? I am asking this question, because in Policing people, some things are declared illegal after the deed is actually done.I am once again talking about the Kannur/Koothuparamba shooting. Around 200 Left party activists are blocking the way of a democratically elected ...

Sachin

Another thing to be inquired into is the arrest of an old leader in the dead of the night. Though arrest at night is not illegal it is clearly laid down that it should be avoided. There is a Section in the CrPC which enables the police to arrest political bigwigs at the wee hours of the night. ...

Sachin

Sujit, By 10th pass I meant the chap has successfully completed the 10th Std. and the State level examination. Another point regarding the basic qualification is that, in many states nobody with a graduate degree have the inclination to join the force as a constable.In states like Kerala whe...

Sachin

Sujit You have a valid question, as to whether better pay scales would change the cops attitude to bribery. I feel, with a better pay scale and perks, and a stringent punishment scheme it would be possible to change the behaviour of the force. I have found that many young policemen do feel bad ...

Sachin

Yes we have a very bad figure for police-to-public ratio. With this we have to take into consideration, that India's population is huge, and maintaining a police force based on this figure would bring the state to its knees. Maintaining a Police Force has always been the biggest trouble for the govt...

Sachin

Manavendra Regarding the policy of the British regarding the use of Indian police man, you have scored a valid point. But if you check up history, you may also find out that they also had some of the most able and smart men in the ranks (The story goes that the fingerprinting and its usage...

Sachin

Blaming the courts does not solve the basic problem that the police should have shown basic human sense. Though I am not a legal expert, there may have been a contempt of court issue or some similar stuff, which the policemen never wished to encounter. After all, which would you prefer running ...

Sachin

shim george A constable's avg. pay comes up to Rs.60,000/- p.a. Police men, if they go on strike can be arrested (may be they will have to ask the Army to do it) and imprisoned. And in many places the Police Welfare Associations itself have split up in party lines. So there is no single associa...

Sachin

You know instead of being corrupt they should just strike. I did'nt get the correct meaning of the word strike. If you mean they should go on a protest strike, then policemen are not supposed to go on strike. And if you mean, that they should strike against corruption, I can guarantee that many...

Sachin

Here's another recent example of Kerala Police bull-in-the-China-Shop smartness: Last year (I think) there was a big fuss about a petting zoo / pet shop in Kerala. Apparently the owner of that establishment was an ex-member of some union or other, and was then out of favor with the Marxist g...

Sachin

The resident police experts like Sunil Sainis seems to be missing. Nikhil Policemen come from the same society which they police. Corruption in India is the most common thing, and you certainly cannot expect a police man to change all of a sudden. Remember you join the police say after 20 y...

Sachin

After reading through the lengthy thread on Karunanidhi's arrest, I thought of starting a thread on Indian Police and its so called brutality.Could we all discuss a scheme which we may feel is a better way of policing the country (May be some policeman would have a look at it too some day). Also ...

shim There is widespread allegation that Indian Police beat up the accused. But AFAIK none of the police depts. in the world can say that they never mis-handled any criminal in their jurisdiction. But again there are few misconceptions regarding the police abuse. Through movies and other med...

Sachin

Good to see this thread still active. http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/ubb/smile.gif I think no force in India wears the pips (or crown for that matter) as part of the ensignia. It has been replaced by the Indian Star (i.e the 5 points one). The police forces have a Silver star, while the Army uses...

Sachin

jay Considering that foot wears also form part of the uniform, no harm in discussing them too http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/ubb/wink.gif As per the regulations no police force generally wears chappals or sandals. W.r.t my state force. The rule is that police men of the Armed Police generally...

Sachin

This discussion has brought out many facets on the police man's life in India. I was detailed with police men for election duties. The constable on duty with me had not seen his home for the past 2 days (when he reported for duty along with me). Prior to the day of election, he was on the routin...

Sachin

shim All figures mentioned by me as salaries are monthly salaries. I don't think any police force (city,town or rural) have video cameras installed on their jeeps. And I don't think it is required too.With what ever knowledge I have gained about the US police, I feel that there a patrol car ...

Sachin

Yes, I can vouch for the Motorala sets. Because recently my state went on a wireless spree. They had purchased lots of radios and all of them were from Motorola. Slowly the wireless culture is catching up with the state police. Allmost all Jeeps in town and city areas have wireless sets (some times ...

Sachin

I feel that Indian Police equipments might be one of the worst equipments used. But slowly modernisation is catching up in many state police forces. W.r.t my state police.Vehicles: They still rely on Mahindra Jeeps. No special fittings or specialized engines. Depending on whether its used in a...

Sachin

Its long time that most of our public servants understand that they are serving the public and not the elected buffoons. But since the Police is under the control of the political leaders, it will have to rot unless some sane leader may ever get a chance to win the election. http://www.bharat-raksha...

Sachin

My experiences with the police force are different in few cases. Atleast in my experience, they always protect you if they feel that you actually treat them/respect them well. The basic policy is "Its WE against them" .During my stint in the NCC I was deputed to the police force on elec...

Sachin

Well nothing much is said about the Padmanabhiah commission these days. That itself says where the report will land up. The best thing to do, is to give enough publicity to these reports, so that common men understands it and ask for its implementation.Politicians should only have one place in a ...
