All true but you can't expect much more from Indian Military. They are treated like a Gulam, expected to perform at highest level where difference between life and death could be half a step, whilst their civilian counterparts are living in their govt furnished palatial homes. Retired beaurocrats like SSMennon, NSA advisor like Naryanan who at best are licking hairy grapes.
Sense I get from some of my friends who are tad below Brig Rank, they want to get their fair shake. They are still loyal to their nation but want to "behti ganga mein haath doh liye" that's why you see scandals coming up like supplies scam, ration scam, fuel scam, etc.
We all can agree or disagree, this cannot continue infinitum, something will crack and whole infrastructure will fall. This nation is staring at her 2nd coming of Islamic slavery, yet most people are napping and in typical Indian Ishtyle want to argue till the end of time.
All military modernizations take long time and money. We don't even have a plan for stop gap measures. We make tall promises to aam aadmi, make big media blare how we are going to increase defence budget, how the process will be streamlined. All political parties, some "bhookhmara lawyer" can file a PIL and start investigation into any contract, that delays the process in the mean time this "bhookhmara lawyer" got his practise started.
